See what Riya Joshi from BA General (2023) has to say about the Admission

According to her, “Before Uttarakhand Open University, I applied to Delhi University, but there was no proper notification or updation for exams, book availability, or any other information was not circulated properly. For regular students, I don't know, but for distance learners, it is very difficult to study at Delhi University. They charge fees, but they don't actually look for the students. That was the reason why I applied at the Uttarakhand Open University. The teachers are much more involved in students' careers than at Delhi University. If I talk about my main subject, that is psychology, the teachers were interactive and co-operative, while at Delhi University, I didn't even know my teachers. You can fill online application or go to the admission centre, give them information and documents, and they will proceed. You will lead basic documents like the Aadhar card, 10th and 12th mark sheets, and others. The course fees depend on the level of the subject; if it includes practical, the fees are likely to be higher.” Read More
