Visit official university websiteStart at the Centre for Online Education
IGNOU’s Centre for Online Education provides information for its online offerings. The university also runs ODL programmes. An admission process completed online does not establish that the degree itself is in online mode.
Match the exact programme code, title and mode with the official online catalogue and admission route. Avoid using an ODL page as the source for an online programme’s exam location, medium or academic requirements.
Use the complete programme title
The portal’s broad BA, B.Com, BCA or MA labels are discovery categories. IGNOU programme codes and discipline titles provide the detail needed for admission.
Check the medium, eligibility, minimum and maximum duration, credits and assessment requirements for the exact programme. A language- or discipline-specific MA should not be treated as a generic postgraduate arts award.
Read programme-specific fees and assessments
Use the current official programme information for fees and the academic instructions for examinations and assignments. Public-university status alone does not answer those programme-level questions.
Ask whether practical activities or assessments require any physical attendance. Where this matters to your work or travel plan, confirm it before applying and keep the official answer with your programme documents.
Prepare a complete official application
Follow the university’s current online admission instructions and the official academic-identifier process. Save the programme code, application number, uploaded documents and payment receipts.
If you cannot find a programme in the online catalogue, do not assume an intermediary can provide the same award through an alternative route. Resolve the availability and mode directly with the university.
