    This is an open university so there is no job security provided by college.
    Placements: It is a good University for part-time learners. But there is no placement support. Neither internships are provided. This is an open university so there is no job security provided by college and students are aware of the same while joining the college. But in some courses like BLIS, MBA & in many management courses placements are provided but that is not good profiles. In BSW there is no placement but a good college for graduation for UPSC Candidate.
    Infrastructure: The Infrastructure of IGNOU college is good. But IGNOU provides classes in study centres. JMI is my study centre which is very large & clean premises. There are 2 cafeteria & water facility is good. The classroom is well structured but the campus is not Wi-Fi enabled. There are no facilities for sports & other extracurricular activities because it is an open University and there are no medical facilities. Classes are held only on Sunday and there is no hostel facility in it.
    Faculty: The faculty is very supportive and helpful. All the faculty members are very good and work hard to make the bright careers of their students. The course curriculum is good but some teachers are not good at teaching & sometimes they did not attend the classes. In our course BSW, there is fieldwork and the teachers provided regular visits as per our curriculum which is the best part of my course. But overall teachers are very good and well experienced.
    Other: Administrative is the worst & study material is not provided on time which makes a lot of difficulty in assignment making. IGNOU is better from SOL because in INGNOU there are 30 marks for the assignment which everyone easily scored and paper is of 70 marks but in SOL the paper is of 100 marks so it is very difficult to solve 100 marks paper as compare to 70 marks paper.

    Other: IGNOU provides many courses like MSW, B.Sc., B.A, M.A, B.Sc. (H) etc. I am pursuing B.S.W from there, which tells us how to provide professional assistance to people in need such as health care, community development, education, industry counselling, social defence, women welfare etc. Teachers of this college are very helpful and dedicated. If in case, you face any problem or do not understand something in your course, you can ask teachers directly anytime because they are totally devoted to you. There is no chance to regret your decision because this college helps in enhancing your knowledge with the help of social activities, cultural activities and so on. It is providing distance education with many interesting courses. College fees are lower than all other institutes.
