If you fall just short of a marks bar at one university, check the next row before assuming you are ineligible — the same degree is often open elsewhere at a lower cut-off.

Online MCA FAQs
A degree awarded through a university's entitled online programme carries the same nomenclature as its on-campus equivalent. Check the specific university's entitlement for your admission year on the university page rather than assuming it.
Several universities require mathematics at 10+2 or degree level, and several do not. This is a university-specific rule — the requirement for each university is on its programme page.
Universities typically assess practical work through assignments, project submissions and a capstone or dissertation. The exact model differs by university and is published on the programme's examination section.
Not sure which Online MCA to pick?
Compare the universities above on fee, entitlement status and specialisation, or talk to a counsellor who will walk you through the shortlist. No cost, no obligation.
