World's
largest open university, Indra Gandhi National Open University aka IGNOU has
launched its first online admission platform for students. Now anyone can apply
for admission in IGNOU using his/her computer. This is a great relief for
students, specially for working professionals, who don't have much time to
visit regional centers for admission and wait for their turn in long queues.
The Online Admission System (OAS) was launched on May 7 by in-charge Vice
Chancellor of IGNOU Prof. Nageshwar Rao.
Using the
online system students can submit their application form online and after
successful submission they will receive a confirmation on their mobile through
SMS and also on email.
This is
indeed a great news for students who are looking for admission in July 2015
session as this facility will be available throughout current admission
session. Students can apply for admission through this system for all 148
academics programmes online admission facility.
Apart from
applying online for admissions, students now also can pay their fee online. A
payment gateway has been integrated with IGNOU's official website and students
can use the same to make payments for their programme fees.
We also would
like to tell our readers that the last date for submitting the admission form
for bachelor preparatory programme, certificate, advanced certificate and PG
certificate programmes is June 15. Although students can submit the application
forms with INR 300 late fee by June 30.
For Masters
Degree programmes, the last date to submit the application form is August 17
and with late fee it is August 31.
For online
admissions, IGNOU has launched a new website, where students can register them,
read about the available courses in offer and can see the instructions for
online application. IGNOU has made the whole process very easy with clear
instructions about online application process. Although with users feedback the
system will become more user friendly. We wish IGNOU best of luck with the new
system.
