IGNOU extends admission deadline for July 2024 session to October 15

As per the Indian Express, the extended deadline benefits students who may need additional time to prepare their documents or make decisions about their education. By moving the deadline from the original date to October 15, IGNOU aims to accommodate a wider range of applicants, particularly those who might have faced challenges in completing the registration process earlier.

Prospective students interested in enrolling in IGNOU’s various undergraduate, postgraduate, diploma, and certificate programs can submit their applications online through the university's official website. However, the extension does not apply to semester-based or certificate programs, which adhere to their original timelines.

To complete the application process, students must upload several required documents. These include scanned copies of their photograph, signature, educational qualification certificates, and, if applicable, category and experience certificates. The process is designed to be straightforward, allowing students to complete their applications from the convenience of their homes.

IGNOU, one of the largest open universities in the world, is known for its flexible learning options, which cater to students from diverse backgrounds. The university’s ODL and online programs are designed to be accessible to students who may not have the opportunity to attend traditional universities due to work, family, or geographical constraints. By extending the registration deadline, IGNOU continues its mission to make higher education more accessible to everyone.
