1. Exam centre allotted is too far – can I change it?
✅ Complaint: Exam centre allotted is too far – can I change it?
✅ Answer:
IGNOU allows students to choose their preferred exam centre while filling the TEE Exam Form. However, once the exam centre is allotted, change requests are rarely accepted unless there are strong reasons.
📌 Key Points About Exam Centre Change
- Before Hall Ticket Release
- If you realize early that you chose the wrong centre, you can try requesting a change through your Regional Centre (RC).
- Send an email/letter with your enrolment number, program code, exam form receipt, and request.
- After Hall Ticket Release
- Generally, no changes are allowed once hall tickets are issued.
- Exceptions may be considered in genuine hardship cases (medical reasons, transfer, etc.) but only with approval of RC + Student Evaluation Division (SED), IGNOU HQ.
- During TEE
- You must appear at the allotted centre mentioned on your hall ticket. Entering another centre is not allowed.
📌 Steps to Try for Change
- Contact your Regional Centre immediately (phone + email).
- Write to termendexam@ignou.ac.in with:
- Name, Enrollment Number, Program Code, Session (June/Dec TEE), Current Centre Code, Requested Centre Code, Reason for change.
- Attach supporting documents if applicable (e.g., medical certificate, transfer proof).
📌 Important Notes
- If the centre is very far, plan travel arrangements in advance.
- Always select a nearby centre while filling the exam form next time, as change options are limited later.
- IGNOU rarely entertains casual requests like “too far”—they usually accept only emergency reasons.
👉 Quick Tip: Always check the exam centre code list (available in the exam form portal) before submitting your form, so you don’t face this issue in future.
