FAQ
Is the August 10 deadline for every UOU programme?
It is the university’s published July 2026 admission closing date. Some programmes use a separate entrance-test route, so applicants must also follow the programme-specific notice and prospectus instructions.

The July 2026 prospectus says the compulsory submission of hard copies of online admission forms has been revoked. Keep your own saved copy and follow any programme-specific document-verification instruction.
