Sir/ma’am,
how many times can we do the credit transfer? Any one of IGNOU members plz reply
hello, i am ignou mcom student couldn’t complete the course within the prescribed time. now I’ve re-registered in mcom but this time it’s a semester base program rather than early as the course has been updated/changed. I am bit confused do I have to fill the exam form for upcoming TEE exams in December or not pls guide. Also, I am unable to find any contact details of student devision were I can call and clarify my doubts as I have to send DD also as mentioned or website. I need confirmation related with amount and subject and few other things pls help me with contact details where I can raise my query for clarification.
Hello,
IGNOU typically requires all students to submit an exam form for each exam cycle (June or December). This form ensures that the university knows which courses the student intends to take exams for in a given term, whether it’s for new registrations, re-registrations, or carry-over subjects. Given that you’ve re-registered for the semester-based MCom program, it is likely that you will need to submit the exam form for the upcoming TEE exams in December.
To confirm this, I recommend checking the latest IGNOU guidelines in the updated MCom prospectus or program guide, or contacting the Student Service Centre for precise details regarding your re-registration and exam form submission in the semester-based system.
For your specific queries regarding the exam form, DD submission, and clarification on the amount and subjects, you can contact the IGNOU Student Service Centre directly:
Email: [email protected]
Phone: 011-29572513 / 29572514
This will help ensure you have the correct information and avoid any delays.
