Performing arts (theatre and television) bring to mind the stage and performance as part of the daily learning in the course. However, for all the valid reasons, we can think of the feasibility of such a degree through distance mode as well. Distance mode has been established all over the world to keep the learning active and bring education to them who otherwise were away from that learning. IGNOU offers the following: Master of Performing Arts (Theatre Arts) (MPATA). Any graduate with a Diploma in acting/theatre arts or any graduate with 5-years of practical experience in theatre.
Programme overview | Courses | Related Information|
Master of performing arts in theatre arts AIMS to provide both practical and theoretical aspects of theatre to students. This course offers specialisation in direction, design and children's theatre to facilitate the students to take up a career related to these areas. This is to add to the above details that where there is no connection between the provider of the Master's degree and the students, the degree is a waste. IGNOU offers assignments and personal contact programme empowered courses and that may be a single reason to think of doing such a course via distance mode.

Dear Learner,
Distance learning was not devised as an alternative to classroom learning or practical learning with the teachers. The same applies to the question as well. FCP is something which is a special learning and through the distance mode, I do not think that it is possible to comprehend and learn the best of FCP like tool through distance. Besides, in India, we do not have that strong and fault-free delivery system of distance learning programmes. Read the related advice: Is it worth to pursue a certificate course in non-linear editing from distance learning in India and why? The question has two sides to answer- Is it worth to do a course of this kind via distance learning and the other side is should it be done from India? Let us discuss the first thing first.
1. Linear editing is a thing of the past in this digital and technology-led age. Hence, it is the non-linear editing that remains the way video production is done for all the forms of films, documentary, TV serial or music videos, etc. Even news reporting videos are also customised. Seeing the demand for this task and knowing the essentials and challenges, it is not advisable or suggested that one should go for a no classroom model of learning "editing" of any kind and level. Distance learning, anywhere in the world it is, has its limitations. There are virtual platforms and ways like video conference, classes, etc. Or MOOCs that offer such learning. But, we must understand that the actual learning of skill through practical and hands-on while doing the course. If the place offers somewhat like near-regular classes or the student arranged for himself some training then only the distance learning course can do some good.
2. Based on the conclusion above, if the arrangement is made for proper practical training, then do it from India otherwise not. IGNOU offers some courses like this, other institutions might also offer, but it is not suggested to join a distance learning in this stream.

Factors taken into account:
When banks receive an educational loan application, the main factors they would consider are:
The academic background and qualifications of the student. The track record of marks, credits and achievements will be considered.
The course for which the loan is being sought. Courses should be accredited and worthy of studying. They should have a good chance of placement and job prospects, so that the applicant can repay the loan.
The institution at which the course will be studied will also play a role. The university, school or college should be accredited and of good repute. Whether or not, the applicant can offer collateral on the loan. The bank will take into account what kind of collateral is offered and the value of it. Whether or not parents, guardians or an acceptable third party are co-borrowers or guarantors of the loan. They will also check the job profile and credibility of the co-borrowers.
