Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU): They offer an MSW program that can be taken through distance education. This program is supposed to benefit working professionals and students who desire flexible time to study.

Karnataka State Open University (KSOU): KSOU provides MSW study through distance learning and aids those students who need a course compromising with the work.

Annurmol University: This offers an MSW program on distance learning and has various streams in social work.

Sikkim Manipal University: SMU provides MSW through distance studies and the courses are designed keeping the time factor in mind.

These courses are flexible, thus suitable for those working or with some prior engagements that may not allow them to attend regular classes. However, one needs to check on respective university websites the eligibility criteria and details of admission.
