IGNOU July 2025 Re-Registration Last Date Extended Till 30th September

The last date for July 2025 IGNOU Re-registration has been officially extended to 30th September 2025, with a late fee of Rs. 200/- for all programmes offered in both ODL (Open and Distance Learning) and Online mode, as approved by the Competent Authority.

IGNOU Re-registration Deadline: Why This Matters

The extension of the IGNOU re-registration deadline provides a crucial opportunity for thousands of distance learners and online students who missed previous cut-offs to continue their studies without unnecessary interruptions. As the academic calendar shifted, many faced delays due to personal, financial, or logistical reasons. Now, students can register for their next semester or academic year until 30th September 2025 by paying a nominal late fee of ₹200.

Who Can Apply: Eligibility Explained

This extended deadline applies to all regular IGNOU students enrolled in undergraduate, postgraduate, diploma, and most certificate programmes delivered via ODL and online formats. Fresh admissions have also been extended to the same date, except for a few semester-based and certificate programmes. For eligibility, candidates must be existing students seeking the next year/semester progression; new applicants should check the official admission portal for course-specific updates.

Benefits of Re-registration Extension

• Students get more time to arrange required documents, select courses, and clarify doubts with regional centers.
• Those who missed assignments or exams can still re-register and avoid losing access to study materials and exams.
• The late fee is kept affordable at Rs. 200/- so that cost is not a barrier for re-registration.
