The Choice Grounded Credit System provides inflexibility for the scholars to study the subjects/ courses of their choice and offer easy mobility between different institutions in the country.

B.A.( General)( BAG) and
B.A.( Honours)( BAH).
While the BAG programme was launched from July 2019, the BAH is launched from January, 2020. While IGNOU has been one of the foremost to introduce credit grounded academic programmes with a wider choice of courses, with the CBCS, it's now introducing semester system and point grounded evaluation system under a 10 point grading system. The programme can be completed in a minimal period of three times( six semesters) or in a maximum period of six times. A credit is original to 30 hours of study time.

This comprise all learning conditioning( i.e. reading and comprehending the print material, harkening to audios, watching vids, attending comforting sessions, teleconferencing and jotting assignment responses). utmost courses of this programme( CCs, DSEs and GEs) are of six credits.
