“Re-registration” means registration in the next semester/year of a
programme, wherever applicable. Learners are advised to submit the Re-
Registration (RR) forms ‘Online’ on the web portal www.ignou.ac.in. as per
schedule being notified by the University from time to time, irrespective of
the fact that whether the learners appeared in the examination or not or
whether they are passed or not in the course(s) registered in the current
academic session. If the Re-Registration in any of the programme is not
available online or for any other reason as specified by the University,
Learners should submit their RR forms at the respective Regional Centre ONLY

have no claim on the University for regularization. International students of
the University pursuing their programme from India are also advised to

to the International Division of the University.
