We started because the brochure
and the accounts office disagreed.
Distance Courses Wala began as a counselling desk in Patna in 2019. It grew into three connected products because the questions never stopped at admission — they ran on into fees, into results, and into the first job.

Prototype build. These figures are indicative placeholders and will carry a published basis before launch.
Nobody Should Have to Guess
What a Degree Costs
The information a student needs to make this decision already exists. It is just scattered across prospectuses, agent WhatsApp forwards, and a phone number that rings out. The gap is not knowledge — it is that nobody has put it in one place and stood behind it.
So that is the whole job: collect the record, check it against the institution, publish it with its source, and let a person read the comparison themselves. Where somebody wants to talk it through, a counsellor picks up. Where they do not, nothing on this site chases them.
2019
A counselling desk in Patna
Two counsellors, one whiteboard of admission dates, and a queue outside. Every answer was given face to face.
2021
The first fee database
We started writing down what each university actually charged, semester by semester, because the brochures kept disagreeing with the accounts office.
2023
Jobs joined the list
Students who finished a course kept asking the same next question. Berojgar Bharat began as a shared spreadsheet of verified local vacancies.
2026
One platform, three doors
Distance, Colleges and Jobs run on the same verified records, so a decision made on one side carries into the next.
How We Work
The principles behind every listing and every conversation
We name the source
Every fee, approval and salary band on this site points at where it came from. If we cannot source it, it does not go up.
The fee you see is the fee
Total programme cost, not the first instalment. Exam and re-registration charges are listed separately rather than buried.
Ranking is not for sale
Universities and employers can advertise on DCW. They cannot buy a position in a comparison or a higher rating.
A person, when you want one
Counselling is free and optional. Nobody on the team is paid a commission on where you enrol.
What We Do
Three connected products, running on the same verified records
Distance Courses Wala
UGC-DEB approved distance and online degrees, plus NIOS, BOSSE and BBOSE open schooling — compared on fee, approval and exam mode.
Colleges Wala
Colleges in India and abroad with cut-offs, seats and the total cost side by side, and a NEET predictor that turns a rank into a shortlist.
Berojgar Bharat
Fresher-friendly jobs from employers we have checked, with the salary stated upfront, and a free resume builder. No fee to a candidate, ever.
Institutions Pay Us. You Do Not.
Money is the question people are too polite to ask, so it is answered first
Listing and advertising
Universities, colleges and employers pay to appear and to advertise. Advertising is labelled as advertising, every time.
Admission referrals
When a student enrols through us, the institution pays a referral fee. It is the same fee across institutions in a category, so it cannot tilt what we recommend.
What we never do
We do not sell placement in a comparison, we do not sell your phone number, and no counsellor earns a commission tied to where you enrol.
Come and Argue With Us
If a fee on this site is wrong, a listing is stale, or a posting asked you for money, tell us and we will fix it or take it down.
