In India, most online degree courses offered by UGC-approved universities don’t require an entrance exam. Admission is usually based on your past academic performance.

However, some premier institutions (like IIMs for Online MBA) may require you to qualify for entrance examinations.

Entrance exams are not necessarily important but some institutes like IIMs demand scores of CAT, XAT, SNAP, and GMAT while some colleges do not conduct any entrance exams or do not even demand any entrance exam scores.

No, some universities don’t take any of the entrance exam rounds for admission in online degree courses, and when they don’t, they require some other form of requirements, like scorecards, academic reports, project portfolio, Letter of recommendation, Statement of purpose of pursuing the program, and others. 


But some universities take the entrance exams for admission to online degree courses, and one of them is the CUET exam. With this, the capability, technical skills, and understanding of the devices are tested.

Entrance examinations are very rare, and most online degree programs in India do not involve entrance examinations, although students usually have to have completed the prerequisite qualification, e.g. 10+2 to take up an undergraduate program or a bachelor's degree to pursue a postgraduate course, with an approved board or university. The application process often depends on two factors, which are academic records and document verification, so it should be easy and accessible to the majority of learners.
