Step-by-step rules to prepare IGNOU assignments (handwritten + format)
Candidates are requested to read each point carefully to prevent them from making mistakes while writing the assignment of IGNOU. We have created the instructions point wise so that you can read and understand them easily.

Use A4 pages (ruled is usually safest).

Write the question number clearly before each answer.
-
Number all pages (Page 1, Page 2…).
-
Write your enrolment number + name at the bottom of pages if your centre recommends it.
-
Keep each course assignment separate (don’t mix course codes).
-
Submit handwritten assignments (typed/printed answers are commonly not accepted in many programmes).
-
Avoid copying from other students/blocks—copied content can be marked zero or rejected.
-
Bind/staple neatly so pages don’t get lost.

IGNOU Assignment Front Page: FAQs
Q1) Is the IGNOU assignment front page/cover page compulsory?
Yes. You must include the required student and course details on the first page of every assignment submission. Many IGNOU assignment instructions expect these details on the first page of the response sheet, and several Regional Centres also require a separate top sheet/cover page format.
Q2) Is the cover page a separate sheet or the first page of the answer sheet?
It depends on your Study Centre/Regional Centre instructions. In many cases, the first page of your handwritten answer sheet works as the “front page” if it contains all required details. Some Regional Centres also ask you to attach a separate top sheet/cover page before your answers.
Q3) What details should be written on the front page?
Usually, you should write:
-
Student name
-
Enrolment number
-
Programme code/name
-
Course code
-
Course title
-
Assignment number/code (if provided)
-
Study centre code/name
-
Session (June/December and year, or as printed on your assignment)
-
Mobile number (and email if asked)
-
Date and signature
Q4) Do I need a separate front page for each subject/course?
Yes. In most cases, you should prepare and submit each course assignment separately, with its own front page/top sheet. Do not combine multiple course codes under one cover page.
Q5) Are typed or printed assignments accepted?
In many programmes and at many centres, typed/printed assignments are not accepted and assignments must be handwritten. If your Regional Centre allows online submission, they typically require scanned PDFs of handwritten answers. Always follow your programme/centre instructions.
Q6) What paper size should I use: A4 or foolscap?
This varies by programme and Regional Centre. Some instructions specify A4, while others mention foolscap. Use the paper size mentioned in your assignment booklet or centre notice. If nothing is specified, A4 ruled sheets are usually the safest.
Q7) Should I write my details only on the front page?
Best practice is to write at least your enrolment number and course code on every page (top or bottom), and number all pages. This reduces the risk of pages getting mixed up during evaluation.
Q8) Should I staple/file the pages? Are plastic files allowed?
You should keep pages properly arranged and securely attached (stapled or tied as your centre prefers). Some centres discourage plastic covers/files. Follow your centre’s submission rules and keep the set neat and secure.
Q9) What should I attach along with the assignment?
This depends on your centre. Some centres ask for additional documents such as an ID card copy or registration details. If your centre does not specify anything extra, submit at least the complete assignment set with a proper front page for each course.
Q10) Where do I submit the assignments: Study Centre or Regional Centre?
Usually, assignments are submitted to your allotted Study Centre, but submission instructions can vary. Some Regional Centres provide online submission systems or specific directions for their jurisdiction. Always follow the latest notice from your centre.
Q11) Can I submit IGNOU assignments online?
Only if your Regional Centre/Study Centre provides an online submission method for your programme/session. When online submission is permitted, you may be required to upload separate PDFs for each course and follow specific file naming rules.
Q12) How can I confirm my assignment was received or updated?
Keep your submission receipt/acknowledgement (offline or online). If the status or marks do not update after evaluation, you’ll need this proof to raise a query with your Study Centre/Regional Centre.
Q13) When will assignment marks appear on the Grade Card?
After your assignment is evaluated and processed, marks are updated on the Grade Card. The timeline varies by programme, study centre workload, and session, so updates may take time even after submission.



sir,
BPC-05 , BPC-06 3rd Year B.com Hindi Medium ka assignment nhi mil rha hai please Help.
Sir,
You say “write question number before each answer” that means we don’t need write questions but suppose I have to fill in the blanks in a later or else where. Will I then need to write that later and then fill in the blanks in that or Can I just write the answers as follows:
A: Answer
B: Answer
C: Answer ?
As you recommend to make the assignments on blank paper but what if the teachers at regional center says to use lined papers?

it means simple.. dont copy the answer from any book.just go through the ignou study material,which is provide by itself university and then write down the summery….
Is it compulsory for write on one side of the paper

I think ignou must encourage the idea of saving paper and tell students to write on both side. This issue is very serious and such big steps by big institutions can help.
Can’t we write on both the sides of paper

This is Hari from United Bank of India. I completed this course long back. You should apply and write exams in order i.e. first year courses first. You can not club all papers and write exams for all papers in one sitting taking credit of delay. Got it? And, I think there is a cap for each year exams. to complete in a particular year.
