    Yes, all IGNOU degrees are valid for any purpose, whether you are appearing for any entrance exams or employment exams. It has recognition at the national as well as international levels. IGNOU is a recognized university under the UGC and a government university. Adding further, an IGNOU degree is approved by the Distance Education Bureau (UGC) and the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) as well. Additionally, IGNOU provides free UPSC CSE coaching to scheduled caste candidates at no cost. Every year, IGNOU invites applications from scheduled caste students for free coaching of UPSC IAS (prelims and mains).

    Yes, an Indira Gandhi National Open University IGNOU degree is considered valid for the Union Public Service Commission UPSC examination. However, it is important to check the eligibility criteria for each individual UPSC examination as different exams may have different requirements. Even it is an open university, one is eligible to apply for UPSC.
