An online degree from a UGC-entitled university is legally equivalent to the on-campus version — valid for jobs, government exams and higher study. The catch is that quality, fees and support vary widely between universities, and plenty of agents will push whichever one pays them most. That’s the gap this journal — and our free counselling — exists to close: verify everything yourself, compare honestly, then choose. When you want a real person to walk through it, we’re a call or WhatsApp away.
