Whether your life at JNU is hectic or not, depends mainly on your course. It’s you who has to find the balance between career, friends, fun and yourself.

JNU is exceptionally safe for girls and girls can enjoy their college life by roaming around at night. Some other fun activities at JNU are:

  • DJ parties for freshers almost every weekend

  • During the winter semester you get hostel nights every weekend. It's a 2 day event celebrated by each hostel. First day is a cultural program, students irrespective of their hostel can take part in singing, dancing, music, band and drama to be performed on the same stage and get facilitated. On the second day the hostel throws a dinner party followed by a DJ.

Can I apply for LLB after graduating B.A through IGNOU correspondence study?

DM

Devraj Mehta

03 Nov 22

The eligibility criteria for various universities vary. Because IGNOU is a recognized university, you can certainly apply for admission to pursue LLB if you take the CET.

The Bar Council of India does not recognize law degree programs completed through distance education, so IGNOU does not offer 3-year LLB, BA LLB, BBA LLB, or LLM programs. It should be noted that no entrance exam is required for IGNOU law programs (except for Ph.D. in Law). Candidates must simply register for IGNOU law programs by completing the application form and submitting their application fee, as well as the course fee.

Is there a semester system in IGNOU for BA courses?

AK

Anil Karki

28 Oct 22

No, there is no semester system in IGNOU for BA courses. In IGNOU students are enrolled in two cycles (January and June). The submission of assignments and TEE (Term End Examination) is scheduled once a year.

Although assignments can be submitted only once a year, there is a high chance that if you fail to appear in May or December TEE, you can appear for that particular subject on another cycle.

For example, you enrolled in this course in 2021. If you wish to appear for June 2022 TEE, you are required to submit the assignments by March 30 2022. If you fail to appear or pass the TEE, you can appear for the same exam in December 2022.
