Online degrees and distance learning

Online education in India is a real option for undergraduate and postgraduate study when the university is allowed to offer that programme in online or distance mode. For Indian online degrees, families should confirm the institution on the University Grants Commission Distance Education Bureau lists, and read what employers or further-study routes will accept.

Online study can fit

• Working professionals who cannot join a full-time campus
• Students who need a lower living-cost route
• Learners who want a recognised degree without relocating

When it is a poor fit

Online study is a poor fit when the only attraction is a low fee and the recognition is unclear. We help you ask the recognition, assessment and time-commitment questions before you pay.
