The main disadvantage of IGNOU is that the administration does not even listen to the student's problems. Every Regional Center has a student support desk, but it is not there to help students, but to torture them. The regional center IGNOU university staff does not treat students as human beings. Some claim that IGNOU has standard study material, but the 20% figure printed in the IGNOU book is incorrect.
The amount of Rs. 750 is required when you go for a re-evaluation of your exam paper if you do not receive the expected marks. Normal university fees are Rs. 150.
These are the main drawbacks of IGNOU distance and online learning.
