Yup! Best college in the whole of India
Placements: IGNOU is the best college in India for all distance students and overall the best college for any education. Books are delivered to your Aadhaar card address and the fees amount adjusts the book payment, so hurry and book delivery to your address that's good.
Infrastructure: The big trouble is after registration, admission confirmation date is too long, like 2 months , or everything is okay . All courses are available, and I am not going to college, so I didn't think about Wi-Fi availability . I am not because this college actually fires only distance.
Faculty: Teachers always keep students updated on any new updates. After graduation, I don't know if students are ready for any industry. Semester exams are normal, and the percentage passing is not known because I am in my first year. Basically, the passing number is 33, which is a good number. 75 may be good for every industry hiring you.

Absolutely satisfied because of faculty, maintenance, really good infrastructure, and facilities.
Placements: No minimum percentage needs to placed in course but stream matters.
No package is offered at this university; they only provide you distance learning and if you want, you can visit your center on Saturday or Sunday.
They give information via Gmail; we have to apply for an internship.
You can become tutor, education consultant, etc.
Infrastructure: In my center, wifi computers and laptops are well maintained and the classroom and library are clean. Teachers are good with good knowledge about topics; my experience was actually good on my campus. You should take good care when doing admission but every center is well maintained
Faculty: All teachers are helping every student equally and teachers try to make you industry-ready.
Semesters are more hard in this college; the passing percentage is 40%.
The exams were hard because institute want to make good students with great knowledge and teachers are always with you for your help

IGNOU Bachelor of Arts Program (3-Year) review.
Placements: The placements are not directly available for the students, but there is a Campus Placement Cell that helps students get jobs in some companies. There are some programs that include internships with the study, but not all have internships. Some programs that involve social or administrative work may offer internships.
Infrastructure: There are several facilities available in the college, such as classrooms, a library, science and computer labs, and a playground. However, there is no availability of hostel and mess, and no canteen is available in the study center provided by IGNOU.
Faculty: Teachers are well qualified and very helpful towards students. The teaching quality is very good, and the course curriculum is relevant and provides some of the best study material available. The study material is well curated and easy to understand.
Other: I chose this course to help in my preparation for civil services exams.

The college is good if your purpose is to join distance education
Placements: IGNOU is well-regarded and has a strong reputation. In the college of Shri Aurobindo College of IGNOU, there is good placement; famous companies were coming for the campus selection, and the normal package of the Shri Aurobindo College of IGNOU is approximately 4 Lacs to 5 Lacs, which is pretty good for the students.
Infrastructure: Our college is well-known in India. The highest package for non-technical departments is 5 Lacs per annum, while the lowest is 2 Lacs per annum. Approximately 50% of the students are placed through campus recruitment. Students are also encouraged to seek internships. Top recruiting companies include Amazon, Flipkart, and Acon. The infrastructure is impressive and creates a positive impression. The quality of food is good, with lunch available in the cafeteria. Outdoor hostels are available for students from outside states, and medical facilities are also provided.
The teachers are helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. They support students in achieving their life goals. College life is welcoming, but the exams are strict, and rules are enforced rigorously. Faculty also contribute to the overall development of students.
Faculty: Some say that IGNOU's study materials are comparable to other universities. The infrastructure of the Shri Aurobindo College of IGNOU is too good. In this college, there are various classroom playground labs for practicals, like Zoology, Practical Botany, Practical Computer Lab, etc., that are there on the campus of the college, which is helpful for the students.
Other: The university courses are authorized and recognized by the University Grants Commission (UGC). All facilities in our infrastructure are excellent, like Wi-Fi, clean labs, and classrooms are air-conditioned rooms. Most importantly, you don't need to go to the library because all study material is provided by our campus and delivered to your home via courier. All facilities are quite brilliant, except for the mess, but it's clean and hygiene is good, though mess food is typical. Medical facilities are quick, and sports events and many other activities are organized.

If you are planning to give your time to something else along with your graduation
Placements: There is no such placement thing here as it's a distance study college. But it's good to go for students if you need to give your time to other studies like competitive exams or if you are doing a job. You can still join IGNOU, and it's the best option you will have.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is really good with a large campus, along with a canteen and parks to hang out with your friends. I was in Deshbandhu College, and it was very big and beautiful. Overall, my experience was really good. It's on you now how much you can get from the resources you will have.
Faculty: Everything is very smooth and simple. There isn’t much of a problem you will face while giving exams. You will get everything online, and you can download and take class notes. Also, books will be delivered to your address, and the college will be allotted at the time of examination.
Other: It’s really value for money in my point of view. At this price, you won’t get your degree anywhere else.

The photos I shared here are the college that is allocated for me by IGNOU.
Placements: IGNOU is an open university for students. In this university, in my case, there is no placement.
This university I got admission with the cut off of 60 percent. But IGNOU basically gives you a boost for your degree, and it's going to really help you get a job. In my case, I am studying B.A. right now, and the amount of options is huge.
Infrastructure: IGNOU is an open university, so for all IGNOU students. Basically, a lot of them are near the college and make a centre there to know about admissions or something or assignment submissions, so there is no specific classroom for IGNOU. I got allotted to Pt. Jawaharlal Nehru College, and the class conditions are worse; there is no air conditioning, just normal fans, and there are no good facilities at all. Teachers really don't care if you walk around during class or something.
Faculty: As I said, there is no specific college and teacher for IGNOU; it's an open university, and most of the time students have to solve their problems on their own, but there are few teachers allotted by IGNOU, and they are chilling, doing nothing at all; they are skipping class. Every Saturday, IGNOU told us to attend classes and clear your doubt, but the teacher didn't show up at the college. Curriculum is not good at all; you have to self-study that. Semester exams are not very difficult to me, but if a certain student has a doubt and I want to know something, then yes, semester exams are going to be hard for those students to pass.
Other: Basically, due to some family problems, I got very late to take admission in college. IGNOU is my last option. I chose B.A. English. The main reason to choose this course is that it's easy to understand, and I love to study about it. One thing I wish to improve my course is that in some smart understanding topics in my course there are many topics we don't understand what's going on, so I just want to get good explanations of answers. There are no events, no campus, no campus crowd because its an open university, and yes, we got a chance to get a scholarship.

Good placements and teaching experience.
Placements: In my course, 80 to 85 percent of students get their dream jobs on their own. The lowest salary is around 20k to 25k, and the highest depends on your performance, stability, and behavior. For example, teaching in schools (public or private schools with very good salaries) or private companies like Accenture and many MNCs. About 88% of students were selected in private and public schools, and some were selected in private companies. Teaching may be the top role, and many students got jobs in private companies.
Infrastructure: All facilities in our infrastructure are excellent, like Wi-Fi, clean labs, and classrooms—all in air-conditioned rooms. Most importantly, you don't need to go to the library because all study material is provided by our campus and delivered to your home via courier. All facilities are quite brilliant, except for the mess, but it's clean and hygiene is good, though mess food is typical. Medical facilities are quick, and sports events and many other activities are organized.
Faculty: The teachers on campus are brilliant and helpful. The quality of their knowledge is outstanding, and I can't imagine how clear they are when resolving our doubts. The course is relevant, and it depends on the student when they go to the field. Semester exams are not tough, and the passing percentage is 35% for out of 100 and 37% for out of 50.
Other: I like to teach students, which is why I chose this course. Nothing needs improvement in my course. Everything, like fests, campus crowd, connectivity, campus surroundings, scholarships, and extracurricular activities, is brilliant.

Life of an IGNOU student .
Placements: Placement at IGNOU is very easy, as the criteria for pursuing a course are very low. All the packages offered in my course are the same, be it ODL or physically attending the class. No such internships are offered; if you are an exceptional student, you may get one or two but it's not confirmed.
Infrastructure: As an ODL student, I'm not bound to attend any lectures, because of which I am not well aware of the hostel infrastructure. Students who choose their regional and study centers according to their comfort, like sports or mess, may get the facilities but not everyone.
Faculty: Teachers will be helpful to students who are attending their lectures but they will not go outside their comfort zone to help you. One of the reasons is that they play less compared to other teachers in India. Yes, the course curriculum is relevant, as it really makes the students industry-ready. The semester exams are the same difficulty level as those at other colleges, including their conduct.
Other: I chose this course because I was really into human psychology. Why and how they react to certain situations, the reasons behind them and the what-ifs drove me to choose this course. The thing I would want to improve here is adding online classes that are combined with the physical classes. As for events and fests, no such thing has been done since 2019 except the convocation ceremony.
