  1. Hey, I am a Hospitality Graduate from Ignou and I wish to pursue my Master’s from USA but the issue I am facing is they are wanting 16 years of education whereas I have on 15 years of education with me. I don’t know whether I should enroll myself in a distance learning program from IGNOU or a Regular one? Could you please suggest as to what all can be done? It would be of a great help. Thankyou

    1. Hi Dhriti,

      Both options are okay, but better if you do regular ones because you will also gain regular class knowledge compare to distance mode. so the subject and depth of knowledge are most important to build your career.
      and in case if you cannot afford or have time to study regularly then one and the only option is Distance Education You can go with IGNOU or any UGC & Distance Education Bureau Approved University.

      Most Important:- the course which you are doing under distance mode should be recognized by the DEB (means not university course with subject also should be recognized).

      we wish you all the best.
