    Review of IGNOU Indira Gandhi National Open University.
    Placements: Our college does not provide placements because it is an open university, but it provides good placements for BCA and MBA students.
    Infrastructure: The hostel facilities are average. Previously, facilities were available; however, open distance learning via online portals is no longer available.
    Faculty: Our teachers are excellent and cooperative. The exam operation at this university was very good.
    Other: IGNOU is the best way to study through open and distance learning. Exam and registration feels are different.

    Our college is very good.
    Placements: Our college conducts campus placements. The salary offered ranges between Rs. 25,000-30,000 per month.
    Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is available on our campus. Labs are good. Classrooms are good. The library is acceptable. There is no hostel in our college. Our canteen is good. Medical facilities are good.
    Faculty: Teachers are good and well-qualified. The pass percentage is calculated based on theory exams and assignment marks. You have to score at least 40% to pass exams. Assignments have separate marks compared to theory. Assignments are conducted for 40 marks. Theory exams are conducted for 60 marks.
    Other: I chose this college because I wanted to complete my graduation from a good college. I want to get a government job.

    Ignou has the best infrastructure and also the best faculty members, that's why I chose this course.
    Placements: Companies like Tata, Wipro, Cisco, IBM, etc. visit our college to recruit the students who passed with good marks, but there are very few students who got placed in any company. So, if you are looking for placement, then this college is not good for you, and very few students get internships from our college.
    Infrastructure: Ignou's best thing is its library, its awesome, and many students come to the library for study purposes. Ignou is a distance learning college, so it does not provide any type of hostel, and there is no sports complex for students and no canteen for students. So, my final point is that Ignou is a distance learning college, so it does not provide these types of facilities.
    Faculty: Ignou's teachers are very helpful, they always try to solve your query and doubts related to your course, and they will provide you study materials online. Apart from that, the teachers are very well educated, and the exams at Ignou are very tough. If you don't study properly, you will fail in exams, and you have to submit your assignment on time.
    Other: I am interested in political science, which is why I chose this course. I am considering taking the UPSC in the future, and I plan to take political science as an optional subject.

    You can take admission if you do not have enough time for college and you want to study with a job.
    Placements: There were a very few placement chances that we got from the college since the percentage of students was very high. There were thousands of students who joined the college and study to perform good and some are doing very well but very few students got their internship which was a problem.
    Infrastructure: Labs, classrooms and libraries are available but maintenance was not good. It looks like very old structure, medical facilities are not available in the hostel and we had to eat outside the hostel and quality of food given is not good since they give very oily food.
    Faculty: The teachers are very knowledgeable and they help students a lot. They help students when students have any doubt about anything except a few teachers who are not that helpful. No, curriculum is not enough to make students industry ready. They have to train more for getting the jobs.
    Other: Events, fest, surroundings are good and scholarship was also good.

    Review of IGNOU - Indira Gandhi National Open University.
    Placements: About 200–260 students are placed in the course. The average salary offered is about Rs. 20,000 per month, the highest is Rs. 35,000 per month, and the lowest is Rs. 18,000 per month. Companies like Wipro hire students here. Around 70% of students got internships. Sales manager and data analyst roles are offered.
    Infrastructure: IGNOU has spacious hostels and buildings. The library is in a public place, but the maintenance is very good. Classrooms are huge and also have smart boards. The quality of food in the hostel is fine, and the cleanliness is very good. There are many games. Medical facilities are provided by IGNOU.
    Faculty: IGNOU has highly qualified and experienced teachers. The teaching quality is very good. The environment is pretty quiet. Exams are very difficult, but we get good grades because of the teaching methods. The passing percentage is about 68%.
