    First of all, I congratulate you on your decision that you are interested to start your education afresh even though a long gap has occurred in between. However, it is an encouraging step to think seriously in this line.
    There are a lot of universities offering you the distance education course in the direction you want to move such as Humanities, Science and commerce as for example. To name a few of such universities are IGNOU, Karnataka Open University, Manipal Distance Education, Utkal University Distance etc. Of all I think, IGNOU would be a better choice since you need move elsewhere for the course- materials to be taken up by you at the different stages of your continuation of course.
    The subject - materials provided by them are of immense value since this would provide you clarity of subjects of the different subjects included in your course. The other interesting feature with your continuation with this open university is that you will be backed up with the doubt removal classes of one month which will follow before the end of the course for all the courses undertaken by you be it intermediate or graduation.
    You need to devote your time for at least five years for completing your graduation course right from now but with their guidance, you will have your degree in a stress - free environment.

    You can continue your education after 15 years gap also. My sister is 60 years old and she worked as a teacher for 25 years and now she is doing her MA in Sanskrit. So we can study at any age and there are no problems with it. These days online education and distance education is very common and many employees are doing that.
    I appreciate your decision and you can go ahead. But what course and what institute? Are you working anywhere and if so in which field? Based on this you can take a decision about the course that is useful for you. For example, I know a person who is working as an attender in a government organisation. He will get a promotion if he clears his 12th class. So he studied in distance mode 12th class and he got the promotion. He is more interested in History. So he studied History, Economics and civics subjects in his 12th class and cleared in the first attempt itself. IGNOU is a very well-known open university and it has a variety of courses to choose from. I suggest you to go the IGNOU website and decide about the course.

    You can again start learning and secure graduation degree and for that there are so many institutions in our country which are offering online graduation programs in a variety of subjects.
    Before that you will have to first complete your class 12 by taking admission in a Higher Secondary School as a private candidate. Alternatively you can go for NIOS mode also to complete class 12. Once that is done then you can enrol for online graduation course in any institution like IGNOU and pursue the course and clear the papers.
    You can select the subjects of your choice or any other which are useful to you in your career or present work.

    Knowledge is power.

    Consider pursuing a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) or Bachelor of Commerce (B.Com) through distance education at institutions like IGNOU, SMU, Annamalai University, or MKU. Research each university's offerings and choose based on your preferences and course durations, which can vary.
