IGNOU Re-Registration for the January 2026 session has officially started. Eligible students can now apply online for their next semester or year through the IGNOU Re-Registration portal.
Latest Update: The Re-registration for the January 2026 session for all ODL and Online programmes is commencing from 1st December 2025, and the last date of Re-registration will be 31st January 2026.
If you missed the previous July 2025 session, you can re-register in the January 2026 session (subject to programme eligibility and availability). Note that this may extend your overall course duration by approximately six months.
What is IGNOU Re-Registration 2026?
IGNOU Re-Registration is the process for existing students to enroll for the next semester or academic year in their ongoing programme. The re-registration process is available only online and is applicable to students enrolled in programmes of more than one year duration.
For the January 2026 session, both Indian and International students can re-register online through the official IGNOU Re-Registration portal.
IGNOU Registration vs Re-Registration 2026
| IGNOU Registration | IGNOU Re-Registration |
|---|---|
| For fresh admission to a new programme. | For continuing your next semester or year. |
| Done once at the start of your course. | Done every semester/year until completion. |
| Requires a one-time registration fee of ₹300. | At the time of re-registration, students normally pay the prescribed programme fee for their next semester or year. Any late fee or additional re-registration charges (if applicable) will be as per IGNOU’s official notification for that session and programme. |
| Applicable for new students | Used for existing students. |
Why IGNOU Re-Registration is Important
Re-registration is mandatory for continuing your course. Without completing it within the given deadline, your enrollment may lapse, and you could lose your admission.
It ensures:
- Continuation of your academic journey.
- Access to study materials and exam registration.
- Progression to the next semester or year.
If your course is divided into multiple semesters (for example, a 2-year or 3-year programme), you must re-register before each term’s deadline to stay active.

Dear Sir
Thank you very much on receipt of the DECE assignments which I have received through email and on which I have already started working. I have a few queries, request you to clarify.
1. In all the DECE Assignments, the submission dates are as follows:
For Assignment No.1- Date is 31.3.2017, for Assignment No.2, Date is 28.2.2017 and for Assignment No.3,Date 31.3.2017 as mentioned in all the three assignment sheets.
Now, when I called up the local Study Centre (1601), the Co-ordinator informed me that all the three Assignments have to be submitted only by 31st March 2017.
Kindly confirm if 31st March 2017 is the actual date for submission of all the three assignments (DECE 1, 2 & 3) together.
2. With regard to Practical Exercises which form Section B & Section C respectively of the assignments, do we need to carry out only one Practical Exercise each for both the sections or as the cover note mentions the need to do two exercises each. Also please let me know if the Practical Exercise have to be done on a ruled Fullscape paper as per the format given in the Practical Manual, or do I have to cut the page from the Practical Work for the Observation and Analysis. Kindly clarify,
3. In the Programme Introduction book, you have mentioned that we can get schools for the Project Work as advised by the Study Centre. If so, please let me have the concerned person’s name whom I can contact for needful.
I await your reply per return mail.
