Here is a list of courses that UGC has restricted the institutions to be offered in ODL and online mode:
Medical
Engineering
Law
Hotel Management
Architecture
Catering Technology
Horticulture
Occupational Therapy and other Para-Medical courses
Physiotherapy
Pharmacy
Dental
Nursing
Yoga
Tourism and Hospitality Management
Visual Arts and Sports
Culinary Sciences
Aviation
Aircraft Maintenance
Note: Students aspiring to take take admission into M.Phil and PhD programmes must be aware that these courses are prohibited to be offered in both ODL and online mode.

Students can visit the official website of UGC DEB at deb.ugc.ac.in.

Indeed, you can enrol in an IGNOU 1-year diploma program after finishing your 10+2 and then go on to a 3-year LLB program. But here's what you need to remember:
IGNOU Diploma: After your 12th grade year, you can enrol in a variety of 1-year diploma programs offered by IGNOU, although this won't immediately qualify you for an LLB.
LLB Eligibility: A bachelor's degree (BA, B.Sc., or B.Com.) from an accredited university is required to complete a three-year LLB program. A diploma is insufficient to meet this criteria.
Obtaining an LLB requires completing a Bachelor's degree first.
IGNOU theory paper Passing marks for Master programme is 40%. It is 35% for Bachelor programme and you marks are below that so your marksheet show incomplete . If you are having less marks than above limit then you have to re-appear in exam or also you can reevaluate your marks.It is the same in the case of assignments you need to get 40 percent of total marks you have to pass individually both theory and assignment to pass the subject.
Hey there! I'm really sorry to hear you're having such a tough time with your IGNOU admission. That must be so stressful, especially after waiting for over two months without any update. I totally get why you're losing sleep over this - I'd be really worried too if I were in your shoes.
I can't directly access IGNOU's systems or anything. But I want to help if I can. Have you tried reaching out to IGNOU's admissions office directly? Sometimes a phone call can get things moving faster than waiting for an online update.
If you haven't already, you could also try checking your application status on the IGNOU website. Sometimes there are updates there that don't get sent out as notifications.
If you're still stuck, maybe we could try to find some contact information for IGNOU's admissions team together? Or I could ask around here at Careers360 to see if anyone has dealt with similar issues before and might have some advice.
Hang in there, okay? I know it's rough, but we'll figure this out. Let me know if there's anything else I can do to help or if you just need someone to talk to about this. We're here for you!

Hello,
Yes, IGNOU (Indira Gandhi National Open University) has introduced 4-year undergraduate (UG) degree programs in line with the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 guidelines .
The NEP 2020 encourages flexibility in undergraduate programs, allowing students to opt for a 4-year UG degree with Honours or Research components. IGNOU has adapted its curriculum to provide this structure. Now, students can choose between a 3-year degree or a 4-year Honours degree. Here's how it generally works:
1. 3-Year UG Program: Students who want to complete a regular Bachelor's degree (like BA, BSc, BCom) can complete it in three years.
2. 4-Year UG Honours Program: Students opting for the 4-year program can pursue a Bachelor with Honours or Bachelor with Research if they wish to delve deeper into their field of study.
This provides flexibility for students to complete their degree at their own pace, in line with IGNOU's open and distance learning model.
Hope it helps !
