📌 What is Assignment Status?

The assignment status refers to the progress report of your submitted assignments with IGNOU. It tells you whether your assignments have been received, evaluated, or marked by the university. You can access this status online through the IGNOU portal.

Typically, your assignment status goes through the following stages:

  • Submitted: Your assignment is received at the study centre.

  • Under Evaluation: The assignment is with the evaluator.

  • Marked: Marks are updated and sent to the regional centre.

  • Updated Online: Marks reflect on your grade card.
