Answer: As you haven't completed you graduation, first you have to complete it. You have not mentioned the stream of subjects you studied in your +2 classes. So if you have studied humanities or arts then you should go in for B.A otherwise opt for B.com. You have mentioned about Lovely Professional University Punjab which is offering you an online graduation program. Lovely Professional University, Jalandhar is a private university created under state govt. private university act. I would recommend you not to go for an online degree. Instead there are many Universities which are offering Distance Education programs and you can easily take admission there and get your graduation degree. I am sending you list of few of them.
  1. Annamalai University Directorate of Distance Education Chidambaram, Tamil Nadu
  2. Chaudhary Devi Lal University University Centre for Distance Learning Sirsa, Haryana
  3. Guru Nanak Dev University Centre for Distance Education (GNDU CDE) Amritsar, Punjab
  4. Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) New Delhi
  5. Himachal Pradesh University International Centre for Distance Education and Open Learning (ICDEOL) Shimla Himachal Pradesh
  6. Panjab University Department of Correspondence Studies Chandigarh, Punjab
  7. University of Delhi School of Open Learning University of Delhi Campus, Delhi

All the best,
