Remarks :
Anyone can get admission in the school of open learning. There is no basic requirement you just have to pass the 12th standard and you can get the admission. The application form is simple too, you just have to choose you course and pay the fees that's it.
Course Curriculum Overview :
There are a large amount of course you can choose from in the school of open learning. I personally chose English honours as I was interested in the literature and mythological stories. The curriculum doesn't give you any exposure as there are classes only in Sundays so all the weekend you're on your own. I would suggest to improve the availability of the teachers and fix the teacher to students ratio
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :
There is not a high spike of tution fees for the school of open learning the fees is minimal that only covers the fees of the teachers and management. The complete fees of my course is mere 24000 for 3 years with is nothing in compare to the private universities.
Campus Life :
There are no festivals held in the school of open learning there are no events where students can enjoy and that's a downside. You can opt for hard copy or soft copy of the books, both of the opens are available other than that there is no other libraries.
Faculty :
The faculty to students ratio is too poor, there is only 1 teacher for 150-200 students who is only available on weekends. The teachers are just doing there job they enter the class when the bell rings, they open the book and start the lecture and when the bell rings again they just leave. The approachablity of a teacher is very hard as they are only available on weekends when the classes happens and after that you cannot contact the teachers for any queries.

North Campus - Things no one talks about.
Course Curriculum Overview :
My course is B.A. (Hons.) Economics. The curriculum seems pretty outdated to me. I don't think it's really relevant in today's day and age but yet the basics are the same. The theories are the same. I feel more focus should be on practical training. For example sometimes the professors give meaningless assignments which has not relevance. In place of that they can provide the assignment which will have some real world implications and make a person job ready. The exams for economics are pretty hard as compared to other courses. The average cgpa is also low as compared to most of the courses. Changes in curriculum can have postive changes in the moral of a student. While selecting the course it's not clear what can we expect from the course. I feel that a student should have full idea of what the course is all about while selecting a college course because it will be with you for you whole life. The university need to update their curriculum and the maine focus should be on practicals.
