What is the difference between a regular and correspondence course?

Hello Arvind, The difference as the name suggests is in the mode of study. Regular courses are classroom session courses where the student has to attend classes while distance/ correspondence courses are more about self-study where the study material is sent to the student and she/he has to understand and learn it on their own. During examination time, the student has to go to the college and appear for it. The prospects of a full time regular course are better than a correspondence or distance learning course. The acceptability and recognition of a full time course is higher. The Distance learning courses are ideally meant for those who are working and cannot leave their jobs to further education. It is thus an add-on to one’s experience and not so much as a stand-alone degree. So prefer full time regular courses to correspondence unless you cannot get on with it.
