— QUICK ANSWERS (FAQ) —
Q: Are IGNOU assignments handwritten or typed?
A: For almost every ODL course they must be handwritten in your own handwriting. Typed or printed answers are not accepted. Online-programme learners usually upload a scanned PDF of handwritten pages.

Q: What paper and ink does IGNOU require?
A: A4 ruled paper, blue or black ball pen, with a ~4 cm left margin reserved for the evaluator. Avoid red, green, and pencil.

Q: Where do I submit my handwritten assignment?
A: Only to the Coordinator of your allotted Study Centre (offline), or via the official link your Regional Centre / LMS announces (online). Keep the stamped receipt or confirmation.

Q: Is the assignment compulsory?
A: Yes. Without a valid TMA your course stays incomplete and you may not be allowed to appear in the Term-End Examination.

Q: What is the weightage and pass mark?
A: Assignments usually carry ~30% and the TEE ~70%. You must pass both separately — generally 35% for most bachelor's courses and 40% for master's/diploma/certificate courses. Confirm your programme's exact structure in your Programme Guide.
