Yes, in most cases, the Indira Gandhi National Open University IGNOU courses are given the same weight as regular courses. You can apply for government jobs like IAS CDS or SSC with your IGNOU graduate degree. Also, most of the colleges accept an IGNOU degree for admission to their master's courses. However, some companies, government jobs, and universities exclusively ask for a regular degree. Your IGNOU degree might not be considered valid because it is a distance degree. Therefore, you must carefully check the career that you want to pursue before applying to IGNOU.
