Provider tier
State universities
Established under a state Act, public or private. They award their own degrees.
Disclosure. We run one of the programmes described on this site — the IICT and IIPM online MBA. It is deliberately excluded from the tiers below, which are ordered by statutory standing, something we neither control nor hold ourselves. Ours is here, labelled, so you can weigh it against everything else yourself.
A state university awards its own degrees under its founding Act. Many run online programmes; the question is always whether this programme in this mode was entitled for your session.
What this tier means for you
- They award their own degrees.
- Entitlement for online or distance mode is the thing to verify, every time.
- Private state universities are usually where the middle fee tier sits.

A listing is not a recommendation. These institutions appear on the AISHE register in this category. Whether a particular one is currently running an online MBA, and whether it was entitled to do so for your intake year, is something only the institution can confirm. The checks to run →
