DU SOL online degrees at a glance

University of Delhi – School of Open Learning publishes 28 online and distance programmes, priced from ₹10,870 for the M.A. Sanskrit up to ₹1,10,440 for the Master of Business Administration (MBA) — so what you pay at DU SOL depends far more on which degree you pick than on the university itself. Based in Delhi, Delhi, it holds UGC Recognised by the University Grants Commission · UGC-DEB Distance Education Bureau recognised · AICTE Approved programmes · NAAC NAAC accredited, so the online award is treated the same as the campus degree by employers and by universities you apply to later. The catalogue splits 19 bachelor's and 8 master's programmes across 0 specialisations, which is wide enough to move from a UG to a PG here without changing university.

DU SOL: the questions people actually ask

Yes. University of Delhi – School of Open Learning holds UGC Recognised by the University Grants Commission · UGC-DEB Distance Education Bureau recognised · AICTE Approved programmes · NAAC NAAC accredited, and a degree from an entitled university carries the same legal standing as the campus version for government recruitment, PSU applications and further study. Confirm the entitlement covers your intake year before you pay any fee.

Totals run from ₹10,870 for the M.A. Sanskrit to ₹1,10,440 for the Master of Business Administration (MBA), covering the complete programme rather than a single year. Each course page carries the semester-wise split.

Compare them on four things only: total published fee, approval status, whether your specialisation exists, and the support you actually get during the programme. Our side-by-side page puts DU SOL and Amity Online, Online Manipal, VGU in one table so the difference is visible instead of implied.

Online learners at DU SOL get career-services access rather than a campus placement guarantee — resume support, job boards and recruiter drives where the university runs them. Treat any package figure as a description of the whole learner base, not a promise attached to your enrolment.

Fee concessions are handled per intake rather than as a standing scheme. Category concessions for defence personnel, divyangjan learners, women and merit applicants are common in Indian online programmes — confirm the current scheme with DU SOL before applying.

. Keep ready as scans before you begin, because the application usually times out if documents are collected mid-form.

Placement & career

Placement support illustration

DU SOL publishes placement assistance, which is career support such as guidance and opportunity sharing. It is not a placement guarantee, and no employment outcome is assured.

DU SOL does not publish university-wide placement numbers. Programme pages carry the career detail that is published, and you can ask the university directly for its current recruiter list.

Why consider

Published recognition

Official SOL 2026-27 admission page

Programme choice

28 programmes are listed for the current session across UG, PG, Diploma levels.

Flexible study mode

ODL delivery for working learners.

Published fee range

Programme fees listed between ₹10,870 – ₹1,10,440.

Things to consider

  • Eligibility differs by programme — check the course page before applying.
  • Fees differ by programme and may change between admission cycles.
  • Placement assistance does not guarantee employment.
  • Admission cycles and intake dates can change; confirm the current cycle on the official portal.
  • Fees can change between intakes; confirm the current amount before you pay.
  • Verify current fee, recognition and admission details on the official DU SOL website before paying.

Who it suits

May suit

  • Working professionals who need to study alongside a job
  • Learners who want a flexible, non-classroom schedule
  • Graduates looking for a PG programme
  • Students looking for a UG degree without relocating

May not suit

  • Students who specifically want daily on-campus life
  • Learners who prefer classroom-based teaching
  • Applicants who need a programme this university does not offer online

Should you choose DU SOL over a private online university?

Choose it if

  • Your budget starts around ₹11K for the full programme — that is the lowest published total across DU SOL programmes on this page.
  • You want a government/open-university degree at published state fees rather than a private online programme priced for placement services.
  • You need an AICTE-recognised technical programme — that approval is on record for DU SOL.
  • You want to finish UG and continue PG at the same university without re-applying elsewhere.

Look elsewhere if

  • You expect recruiter drives, career coaching or an on-demand LMS experience — an open university's core promise is affordable, recognised study material and examinations.
  • You want live/online classes — DU SOL delivers in distance mode.
  • Placement assistance is a deciding factor for you — no placement support is published in the DU SOL record.

What to verify before applying

Before submitting an application, verify the exact programme name, awarding university, current academic session, eligibility, total fee and fee components, admission deadline, examination method, scholarship conditions and the official admission portal. These details can change by programme and admission cycle.
