IGNOU opens registration for July 2025 session

IGNOU ODL July 2025 registration has started for online and distance learning programmes. Interested candidates can apply through the official website at ignouadmission.samarth.edu.in before the last date, July 15, 2025.

For those targeting online courses exclusively, the sign-up needs to be done at ignouiop.samarth.edu.in. Applications are welcome for both distance and online modes. Moreover, there's an opportunity to tap into scholarships through the National Scholarship Portal at



scholarships.gov.in.

In a significant update, IGNOU mandates creating a DEB ID before applying. This Distance Education Bureau ID is crucial for aligning students with Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) under the University Grants Commission's watch.

The official notice states plainly, "The DEB ID is mandatory for submission of the application. Please create your DEB ID before starting the application process." This measure aims to ensure student registrations align with regulatory norms.
