IGNOU Revaluation Process: A Complete Guide for Students

Many IGNOU students work hard on their Term-End Exams (TEE) but sometimes feel their results don’t reflect their true performance. In such cases, IGNOU offers a Revaluation Process — a formal mechanism to get your answer script re-checked.

If you believe there’s a possibility of error in evaluation, this article will guide you step-by-step through the IGNOU revaluation process, eligibility, application procedure, fee structure, and tips to avoid common mistakes.

📘 What is IGNOU Revaluation?

Revaluation in IGNOU means your TEE answer script will be re-evaluated by another examiner (different from the original). It’s applicable only for theory papers, not practicals, assignments, or project work.

✅ Purpose: To ensure fair evaluation and give students a second chance if marks were unfairly low.

🎓 Who Can Apply for Revaluation?

You can apply for revaluation if:

• You have appeared for the Term-End Examination
• The result of that exam has been officially declared
• You apply within 30 days from the date of result declaration

⚠️ Late applications are not accepted under any circumstances

🧾 What is Eligible for Revaluation?

💰 Revaluation Fee

• 750 per course
• To be paid via Demand Draft or online payment (depending on mode chosen)

📌 The fee is non-refundable, even if your marks don’t change.
