List of Universities Approved by UGC For Distance Education

Universities Approved by UGC For Distance Education: 

With a massive spurt in the population of the country, Education for all becomes a daunting task. Elementary education can still be a little easier with the setting up of schools in villages and townships, but higher education becomes difficult to attain with the dearth of resources and information. Keeping this in mind the UGC or the University Grants Commission has planned the distance education format.

Through the distance education learning plan, a student can enroll in a particular course and continue his work or social commitments without attending regular college. The student has to complete the assignments given and appear for examination to earn a degree, diploma or certificate. Here is a list of universities approved by UGC for distance education:
