Where do IGNOU exams generally take place at their study center or in nearby schools?

It should be noted that there is no guarantee that IGNOU will provide you with the same examination centre you selected during the form-filling process; this may change in some exceptional cases or circumstances. If you do not select an option, IGNOU will locate your examination centre near you. It would be in the same city where you are studying by default.
It could be any government school, college, or other institution that offered IGNOU courses. This means that your examination centre can only be one of the IGNOU study centres.

How can I change exam centers for IGNOU?
Before registering for Term-End exams, students can change their exam location which means that before registering for each Term-End exam, students must select an exam center online (it cannot be changed subject-wise). If you simply do not like your exam center for future exams, you can choose or change your exam center before registering for each semester's Term-End exams.
Since 2017, IGNOU exam registration has been done solely online. Please exercise caution when selecting an exam center. Always go to the closest exam center. Even if you select the exam centers, you may not always get your preferred location. It is subject to change due to a lack of available seats. It is extremely difficult, if not impossible, to change your exam location once you have chosen one.
This is especially true as your exams approach and your data sheet are already prepared. If you have enough time for your exams and need to change your exam location, please contact your Regional center as soon as possible. Please do not waste your time and act immediately.
