JAMMU: The Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) has extended the submission deadline of assignments, project reports and other academic works for the June 2025 Term End Examination to April 30, 2025.

The decision has been communicated through a notification issued by the Student Evaluation Division (SED) under reference number F.No. IG/SED/June, 2025 TEE/2025/15568 which aims to provide students with additional time to complete their coursework amid ongoing academic demands. 

According to the notification, the last date for submitting assignments, project reports, field work journals, practicums, dissertations, and internship reports has been extended to April 30, 2025. This extension applies to students enrolled in Open and Distance Learning (ODL) programs, online programs, as well as those under the Guyana Online Academy of Learning (GOAL) and the Education via Broadband (EVBB) initiatives. The decision was approved by the Competent Authority, reflecting IGNOU’s commitment to supporting its diverse student base. 

The extension is expected to benefit thousands of learners who manage academic pursuits with professional and personal responsibilities. It is worthwhile to note that a huge student-base of Regional Centre Jammu belongs to far off places of the region and a substantial number of students are working professionals which makes them to duty bound to personal and professional commitments. Keeping this in consideration, IGNOU has consistently adapted its policies to ensure flexibility and student-centric approach. 

“This extension comes as a relief to many of our learners, reinforcing IGNOU’s reputation as an institution observant to the needs of its students. Students are, therefore, advised to utilize the additional time efficiently and submit their work through the designated online portals or Learner Support Centres well before the revised deadline”, said Dr. Sandeep Gupta, Regional Director, IGNOU Regional Centre Jammu.

A brilliant mind who studied at Netarhat Residential School and graduated in Electrical Engineering from IIT Kharagpur before earning his PhD from the University of Maryland, Dr. Ranjan chose to return to India and dedicate his life to teaching, research and social good.
