IGNOU Extends Admission Deadline for July 2026 Session: What Does It Mean for Students?
In a recent decision, the Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) has extended the admission deadline for its July 2026 session to August 16 for all Open and Distance Learning (ODL) and online programmes. This move comes as students scramble to secure their spots in these critical educational pathways.
