Why this scheme ?

University is facing the problem of fulfilling the dispatch on time for the study material of the students. This could be the reason to launch this new scheme. Many students did not received their study material last year due to delivery problem in remote areas. You can also face failure of delivery problem due to incorrect or incomplete address. In that case your study material is delivered to your Regional Center. In many cases regional center is located far away from the student’s residence and they are unable to collect the study material from there.

We have also seen some cases where students changed address but their study material was delivered to old-address. And if you don’t have any contact in your old address you won’t get any information if your study material is delivered or not.

There has been also some cases where students changes subject or medium. And if your study material is already delivered to you got your study material (before any change), then you won’t get any study material until your next dispatch which will be in next session.

There lots of other cases which University has faced and they can’t help in all because they are beyond their reach. Many students complain that they don’t get any response from University when they try to contact. IGNOU is world’s largest open university. Surely it means they have a lot of students. And due limited resources university face difficulties in handling all the issues.

This scheme will help IGNOU to reduce the dispatch work of the study material, if hopefully students opted for it. We hope for the success of this scheme. What are your opinions about the scheme tell us in the comments section below.
