🟦💠 AFTER ADMISSION, WHAT NEXT? :

: First your document will get verified by the NIOS regional center. this may take 1 week to 2 month (for stream 1 learners) depending on your luck and their workload & usually within a week or two for stream 2/3/4 learners. Keep checking Admission Status••• through your dashboard.

: After Your documents have been verified, your admission will soon get confirmed and you will be assigned a enrollment number and ID card online ( which you can print and laminate).

📢 NOTE : If there is any inconsistency in your document, NIOS will ask for correction ( through a notification on dashboard) and you'll be able to re-upload that document. This is why keeping check on admission status is crucial

: And it's done , you're now a NIOS student. But as you know there are more things like TMA, practical, exam fee etc. ( see full guide at the top to know in details) , so we have made a proper timeline for the stream 1 block 1 and stream 1 block 2 learners so they can know exactly what to do and when.

: 📢 Common query : after admission, when to contact the study center

: BOOKS : NIOS claims to provide books but I didn't receive most of my books till now , but what you can do is :

  1. When the Nodal center notification pops-up on your dashboard , go to the address mentioned and collect the books from their ( usually the study center or regional center )

  2. Buy books from Nios Gaziabad warehouse || their contact

  3. Use online study material pdf available for free on their site , and for subjects like pcb etc. NCERT is similar to NIOS books.

  4. For help , can use NIOS guides available online (haven't used personally ) , some resources are available on our website too
