Overall, it is an average college for students pursuing professional courses.

Faculty: Courses totally depend on students and how they are performing, and how they are working towards their courses. Regarding exams, they are the same as the exams for students of DU. Centers are allocated to SOL students in different colleges of the University.

Honest review of School of Open Learning, University of Delhi.

Faculty: Teachers are very experienced. Their method of teaching is very good from an exam point of view. According to me, if you are studying through distance, then you should be able to do self-study because in this college you get only 10 to 15 classes, which is not enough. If you are doing self-study, then the time given for studying between exams is sufficient for a normal student, which can be 4 to 5 months .

Class facilities are the best, and the environment helps students focus on studies.

Faculty: Most teachers are experienced and knowledgeable but they struggle to connect with students and understand their interests due to their age. As a result, many students skip classes, finding them boring. The course curriculum is relevant, but the engagement level needs improvement.

School of Open Learning DU.

Faculty: The most of faculty are adhoc basis professor and they are not permanent. The professors are well qualified but not too much professional. However, some of them teach very well and some not. The course of B.A. is very relevant and provides you knowledge of different topics related to your society and surrounding. The exams are quite difficult and may be challenging but you can crack them by focusing on your studies. 40% is the minimum marks you need to pass.

Review of school of open learning.

Faculty: Teachers knowledgeable. This course makes you ready only if you have skills. Or it's just a piece of paper. Industry truth. B.Com as a degree is not worth it or any degree if you don't have any skill. Degree nowadays is not the need of the hour. Very easy for those who study, or who do not study anything difficult for them.

Review of School of Open Learning, University of Delhi.

Faculty: Teachers at SOL are not very helpful for students, as they often fail to clarify doubts. While they possess good knowledge and qualifications, their teaching quality is not adequate for students. In the case of my course, B.A., it does not sufficiently prepare students for the industry. Semester exams are not overly challenging, with approximately 75–90% of students passing every year.

DU sol is the best option for students who are working and preparing for competitive exams.

Faculty: You will get teachers from the top colleges of DU like SRCC, KMC, etc. Exams are term-wise and exam level is moderate; you can easily pass the exams. The course is non-technical and more human-oriented so you can get job in HR, consulting, counseling, etc. The passing percentage is high. The curriculum is relevant and you can choose your major or minor subjects in the third semester.

Best for distance learning.

Faculty: Yes, teachers are helpful, sweet, qualified, and knowledgable. The quality of the teaching is pretty good. The course is relevant, but it does not prepare students for the industry unless they come from one of the big four colleges. Exams are easy in the college and passing percent is good—approximately 80 percent students pass.

Admission eligibily, infrastructure, value of course and teachers, should I choose or not?

Faculty: Yes, teachers are qualified as they are the same as regular course teachers, and they are helpful only when you are willing for help; you have to reach out, of course. As of my knowledge, the exams are the same as for regular students, and the pass percentage is also the same for both modes. Difficulty will always depend on the level of your preparation.

Great faculty, good infrastructure, and placement opportunities.

Faculty: The faculty is highly educated and has extensive experience. Teachers, while teaching, not only adhere to books but also provide extra knowledge such as practical applications. The curriculum is highly subjective and has very little scope for practical applications. The difficulty level of exams ranges from medium to difficult.
