Where these figures come from

Every fee on this page is the all-in programme figure taken from the college's own prospectus or portal, not a tuition-only number, which is why it reads higher than the figure on aggregator sites. Elective subject lists are transcribed from the same sources. Approval status for each university can be checked directly on the UGC Distance Education Bureau portal, which lists every institution entitled to teach this degree online and the years it is entitled for.
