IGNOU Students, particularly those who have just taken admitted to an IGNOU program, tend to ask one common question: What is IGNOU Credit System? Some students think that it must be related to the source of information, while some students think that credit must be related to the marks that need to secure to complete the course. Some students do also think that credit is related to only degree courses. And hence, if they pursue some certificate program, the credit system of IGNOU is not meant for them.

If you too are among those students who want to know all about IGNOU’s credit system, read the article till the end.

”Today, we are going to raise the curtain on the topic: what is IGNOU Credit System?”

Friends, when you take admitted to IGNOU, whether it is a bachelor’s degree, master’s degree, diploma or certificate course, the credit system is always there. You are told at the time of admission itself about how much credit your particular course is, and how much credit you need to complete. Credit is specified by the university per year and per subject. The students are notified about everything related to the degree—how much credit you have to complete in the first year, second year, in third year and so on.
