If you’re a graduate of Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) and need to submit transcripts for higher education, employment, or credential evaluation, obtaining them is an essential step. IGNOU transcripts serve as official academic records and are required by organizations like WES (World Education Services), ICAS, IQAS, CES, and other credential evaluation agencies.
This guide provides a step-by-step process to help you obtain your transcripts from IGNOU efficiently.
Step 1: Gather Required Documents
Before applying for your transcripts, ensure you have the following documents ready:
- Application Form (available on IGNOU’s official website or at the university office)
- Copy of Degree Certificate
- Copy of All Mark Sheets (semester-wise or consolidated)
- Copy of Government ID Proof (Aadhaar, Passport, or Driving License)
- Authorization Letter (if someone else is applying on your behalf)
- University Fees Payment Receipt (as per university guidelines)
Step 2: Apply for Transcripts
IGNOU allows students to apply for transcripts through both offline and online modes.

- Fill out the form and attach the required documents.
- Pay the applicable fee via Demand Draft (DD) drawn in favor of IGNOU, New Delhi.
