Many people look for ways to complete a bachelor’s degree (such as a BA, BCom, or BSc) in just one year, especially if they had to drop out early or were unable to complete it on time.
In India, there is a “Single-Sit Degree” or “Accelerated Degree” program. These programs are primarily aimed at students who:
Dropped out in their second or third year.
Have gaps in their studies and want to graduate to apply for employment or higher education.
How does it work?
Graduation in one year is done through credit transfer or lateral entry:
If you have already completed part of your degree (such as 1 or 2 years), you can complete the remaining years in a single sitting.
Some universities offer “single-sit exams” according to UGC guidelines for students who meet certain requirements.
You must take all your remaining subjects in a single sitting, pass them, and earn your degree in one sitting.
Is it legal?
This method is only legal if done through a UGC-DEB (Distance Education Bureau)-approved university that actually offers credit transfer or lateral entry for undergraduate studies.
Many private agencies and fake institutions advertise “one-year degrees,” but these are often not valid for government jobs or higher education.
Always check if the university is recognized by the UGC, AIU, or DEC.
Which universities offer this?
Some distance learning universities or open universities may offer valid options for students pursuing undergraduate studies. Examples:
Some state open universities may offer similar programs with the relevant regulations.
Always check directly with the university, not through random agencies or websites.
