Karnataka State Open University (KSOU) has opened admissions for 65 Open and Distance Learning (ODL) courses for the 2026-27 academic cycle. The university is also offering online courses and digital support platforms to assist distance learners.
Why it matters
As the only state-run ODL provider in Karnataka, KSOU's admission cycle is critical for students seeking flexible higher education options.
The Karnataka State Open University (KSOU), Mysuru, has begun admissions to its 65 Open and Distance Learning (ODL) programmes for the July 2026-27 cycle, according to vice-chancellor A.P. Gnana Prakash.
Addressing presspersons here on Thursday, he said admissions, which began on June 22, will be open for undergraduate and postgraduate programmes, undergraduate diploma, and certificate programmes, and postgraduate certificate courses.
Students can log on to www.ksoumysuru.ac.in to submit online applications, he said.
The vice-chancellor said that if a student pursuing a regular programme in any college under the conventional method cannot continue the studies, such a student can seek lateral entry or direct entry to the second- and third-year courses at KSOU. However, the student will have to fulfil the conditions laid down by the university.
