IGNOU Provisional Certificate is issued along with the mark sheet or scorecard by the university when the student has completed all the subjects in his or her program, including theory and assignments. The IGNOU provisional certificates of all the eligible students for Bachelor\u2019s, Master\u2019s, Diploma, and Post Graduate Diploma courses<\/strong> are sent by IGNOU<\/strong><\/a> to their Regional Centres, from where they will be issued to students.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If any eligible student does not receive his or her provisional certificate from IGNOU, they can apply on the official website of IGNOU, from where a new certificate will be issued. IGNOU doesn\u2019t issue provisional certificates and mark sheets for Post Graduate Diploma Certificate and Certificate courses, as these need to be issued by the students themselves from the IGNOU head office. In this article, we will discuss what a provisional certificate is and how you can get it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
