Step-by-Step Process to Get a Mark Sheet from Ranchi University
The application process can be completed either offline in-person or through a third-party documentation service provider if you’re located far away from Ranchi. Here’s the standard process:
Step 1: Obtain the Application Form
You can collect the mark sheet application form from the Controller of Examinations office at Ranchi University or from the administration office of your affiliated college. Some colleges also facilitate internal submissions on behalf of their students.
Fill in the form carefully with:
-
Your name (as per university records)
-
Registration number and roll number
-
Name of course and year/semester
-
Reason for applying (original/duplicate/consolidated)
-
Contact and address details
Double-check all entries before submission.
Step 2: Pay the Application Fee
The university charges a nominal fee for issuing mark sheets. The fee structure varies based on:
-
Urgency (normal vs urgent processing)
-
Type of mark sheet (duplicate, consolidated, etc.)
-
Course duration
Payment is usually made via:
-
University challan at designated bank branches
-
Demand Draft (DD)
-
In some cases, through online payment portals
Ensure you retain the original payment receipt and attach a copy with your application.
Step 3: Attach the Required Documents
Compile all required documents and ensure they are:
-
Attested by a gazetted officer or the principal of your college
-
Legible and not damaged
-
Arranged in the order mentioned in the guidelines
Also attach:
-
Passport-size photographs (if requested)
-
Affidavit and FIR in case of duplicate mark sheet requests
Step 4: Submit the Application
Submit your application packet at the university’s Examination Section or the Controller of Examinations office. If your college facilitates internal forwarding, you can submit the documents there and get an acknowledgment receipt.
If you are submitting the form by post, use a reliable courier service and track your package. Always include a self-addressed stamped envelope if you want the university to post the document back to you.
Step 5: Track the Status and Collect the Mark Sheet
Depending on the nature of the request:
-
Normal processing can take up to 30–45 working days
-
Urgent requests may be processed within 7–15 working days
Once the document is ready, you will be notified by the university or your college administration (if you applied through them). You can collect the mark sheet in person or have it dispatched to your registered address if allowed.
If you’re authorizing someone else to collect it, provide a written authorization letter along with ID proof of both parties.
How to Apply for a Duplicate Mark Sheet from Ranchi University
If your original mark sheet has been lost, damaged, or stolen, Ranchi University allows you to apply for a duplicate copy. The process includes additional verification steps:
-
File a police complaint and get a copy of the FIR
-
Create a notarized affidavit declaring the loss
-
Fill in the duplicate mark sheet request form
-
Attach all documents with the affidavit and FIR
-
Pay the duplicate mark sheet fee
-
Submit the application for processing
The university will cross-check records before issuing a new copy, which may take additional time compared to normal issuance.
