If you want to get Degree without living your job distance education is best option for you. There are many distance learning universities but choosing the best is very necessary .Some of the best universities are Amity, Symbiosis, Sikkim manipal .But on my experience Sikkim Manipal University distance program is much better than other distance learning Institute it’s my personal advice coz I’ve also complete my BBA & MBA from this University. SMUDE uses the latest edunxt technology to create a virtual classroom where you can interact with the faculty and students and thereby also network with other students, which is a unique and one of its kind feature amongst other colleges offering distance education. For the prospectus and speaking to their counsellor you can register for free
