Thank you very much for your detailed guidelines and almost all of doubts are clarified. One last question is, will the online BBA program certificate be accepted if go for abroad opportunities?

Ans: Yes. Again it depends upon the University's Accreditation / Recognition by Employers. For example, KSOU is good for jobs in India but not abroad. BBA from Online IIM-Bangalore (if started) will have more weightage compared to SRM/Jain/Sastra etc.

Hello Mayank. My son is currently in Class 12th Commerce (ISC). He has been an average student throughout. Basis of this we realise getting admission into any good college in India for BBA may be difficult. So we thought of sending him abroad, though we are a middle class business family. But i feel BBA is a very general degree to pursue in US, UK or Canada. We are confused. His SAT score is 1360 and IELTS 8.0. Predicted 12th scores would come around 80%. Pls guide whether we should think of abroad. Thanks.
Ans: Thanks for writing to me, Vikas. Congratulations on your son's SAT score. As a general rule, a BBA with a specialisation is substantially sought-after across global markets, especially because of emerging specialisations, majorly tech-infused. In fact, most skilled migration lists for major study abroad destinations prioritise accounting, project management, business analytics, etc. and promise an expedited integration into their country's workforce. That said, your son's academic and career aspirations remain a cornerstone for my final advice. Overall, a high school score of 75% and above along with this SAT score should get him into the Top 50 US Schools. Alternatively, to help your son ease into academic rigour, you can also try and connect with our Study Abroad team at upGrad before making a sound decision. They can help you understand how can your son pursue the initial year of undergrad coursework in India and move to higher-ranked schools in the subsequent year.

Hi sir, I have a few questions regarding the graduation program. I am currently working as a Data Analyst and have an undergraduate background (10+3 - Diploma in Civil Engineering) with over 15 years of work experience in various industries and roles. I am planning to join a BBA course that aligns with my work profile. The reasons for this decision are as follows: 1. Many MNC companies have made it mandatory for candidates to have a minimum of 15 years of education. While I understand that companies have their criteria, it is disappointing that extensive work experience is often overlooked in favor of a graduation certificate, which nowadays can sometimes be easily obtained without real merit. 2. A graduation degree is also essential for overseas job opportunities, and it has been my dream to work abroad for 3-5 years. Considering the above reasons, I have decided to pursue a BBA course. However, I am facing some challenges: a. Having completed my studies in 2008, I am out of touch with academic pursuits and have concentration issues, which may make it difficult for me to pass exams. Nonetheless, I understand that I need to overcome this and focus on my studies to achieve my dream. b. I have two options for the BBA course: online mode and distance education (offline mode). I am unsure which mode will better support my goal of securing a job in an MNC or an overseas opportunity. c. My close circle has suggested IGNOU University, stating that its certificate has a good reputation in the market. Therefore, I am uncertain whether to choose an online mode (such as SRM Institute) or an offline mode (such as IGNOU or KSOU University). Could you please guide me on this matter? Thank you.
Ans: Ravichandra Sir,

1) KSOU is individually good. But as you have gained vast working experience, it is suggested to find out other better options to choose from.

2) You have rightly mentioned that IGNOU Certificate has a good reputation in the market and IGNOU provides comprehensive and well-structured textbooks and study material. However, due to time constraints, you will not have much time to go through each page and take notes, etc.

3) So, it is suggested to go for an online BBA Course with live/recorded online lectures. Here, you will have to check & ensure:

(a) the minimum attendance required
(b) timings of the live sessions should not clash with your office timings.
(c) timeline to submit assignments / Project Reports
(d) fees payable / affordability
(e) Soft copies of Materials provided
(f) Are there any other reputed universities/institutes that provide BBA online courses (other than SRM/Manipal)? On LinkedIn, recently there was news that IIM-Bangalore has a plan to start BBA-Online by September 2024. Please keep checking its website from now onwards.
(g) Try to join a reputed university/institute & research more for a month to choose the best one to reflect in your Resume.

Keeping in view the above factors, please choose the most suitable Institute / University and pursue your BBA.

All the BEST for your Bright Future, Sir.
