IGNOU December TEE Admit Card Out: Exams Start Nov 25, Download Hall Ticket Now
IGNOU students, your wait is over. The university has released the hall tickets for the December 2026 Term-End Examination. You can download your admit card now from the IGNOU Samarth portal. The exams begin on November 25, so do not leave the download for the last day.
The hall tickets went live on November 6. They are open to students of Open and Distance Learning (ODL) and online programmes who submitted their exam forms. If you are one of them, log in to the Samarth portal and get your copy today. More admit card and result updates are listed on our results page.
Hall tickets are live on the Samarth portal
IGNOU issued the release through its Student Evaluation Division on November 6. The notice covers every eligible learner in ODL and online programmes. The hall ticket is the one document you cannot enter the exam hall without, so the university has asked students to download it well before the exams start.
“All eligible learners enrolled in IGNOU’s Open and Distance Learning (ODL) and Online Programmes are hereby informed that the University has released the Hall Tickets for the Term-End Examination (TEE) December 2026 through the IGNOU Samarth Portal.”
That is the exact line from the university notice. It leaves no doubt. The link is live, the download works, and the exams start in less than three weeks.
How to download the IGNOU December TEE admit card
Keep your login details ready before you start. The process takes only a few minutes.
- Go to the IGNOU Samarth portal.
- Log in with the username and password you created when you submitted your exam form.
- On the home page, look for the December 2026 TEE admit card link.
- Open it and check the details on your hall ticket.
- Download the file and take a printout.
IGNOU does not send hall tickets by post. The Samarth portal is the only place to get yours. If the site feels slow, try again after some time. A lot of students log in on the first day, and the portal can take a while to respond.
Students who are new to this process can also read our guide on how to download a university admit card. The steps are the same for most universities, and the guide explains what each field on the hall ticket means.
Check these details on your hall ticket
Do not just download the file and forget it. Read every line on it once. A small mistake now can cost you a lot of time at the exam centre later.
- Your enrolment number
- Your programme and course codes
- The name and address of your examination centre
- The date and session of each paper
If any detail looks wrong, contact your IGNOU Regional Centre for correction. Get mistakes fixed through your Regional Centre, not at the exam centre on the day of the paper.
Two things you must carry to the exam centre
IGNOU is clear about this. You need a printed copy of your hall ticket and your valid IGNOU identity card. You will get entry only after showing both documents at the gate. A photo of the hall ticket on your phone is not a safe backup, so keep a printed copy in your bag the night before the exam.
Reach the centre early on the first day. Centres can be crowded, and finding your room takes time.
Assignments go online too
Along with the hall tickets, IGNOU has started an Online Assignment Management System for the December 2026 TEE. Students can use the new system till November 20. If your programme needs assignments before the exams, finish them through this system and keep the submission receipt.
Students who filled the December TEE exam form are the ones who can download hall tickets now. If you missed the form, the hall ticket will not be there for you.
What to do next
Download your hall ticket today and check every detail on it. Note your exam centre address and the dates of your papers. Students appearing for other IGNOU exams can also check the IGNOU PhD admit card update on this site.
Keep checking the Samarth portal and the IGNOU website for any change in the exam schedule. The university posts updates there first.
