I’m currently pursuing a BCA from a private university that is UGC-approved but does not have NAAC accreditation or AICTE approval. Will this affect my job opportunities in India or abroad, or create issues when applying for higher education (like MCA or MBA)
@Jagrit_Keshri Since your BCA is from a UGC-approved private university, your degree is valid and recognized in India. You can apply for higher studies like an MCA or MBA, and most jobs in the private and public sectors. However, the lack of NAAC or AICTE approval might matter for some top government roles or premier institutions, which may prefer accredited colleges.
In the private sector, especially in tech, employers mostly care about your skills, projects, and experience.
For studying abroad, it’s usually not a problem as long as your degree is recognized. International universities focus more on your academics, test scores, and overall profile. As long as you build a strong resume, the absence of certain accreditations should not limit your opportunities.
