The National Testing Agency (NTA) has extended the last date for submission of application forms for the Study Webs of Active Learning for Young Aspiring Minds (SWAYAM) July 2024 semester exam. Now candidates will be able to register till November 4, 2024 on the official website (exam.nta.ac.in/swayam).
According to the notice, "Candidates may make corrections in the details furnished by them in their application form online through the correction window at https://exams.nta.ac.in/swayam, when the correction/edit window is live."
SWAYAM, an initiative by the Government of India, aims to narrow the digital divide for students who have yet to benefit from the digital revolution and have not integrated into the knowledge economy. The certification exams for the SWAYAM July 2024 semester will take place over two shifts: Shift 1 from 9:30 AM to 12:30 PM and Shift 2 from 3 PM to 6 PM.

This exam will facilitate admission to 525 distinct courses. Some subjects will be assessed through a Computer-Based Test (CBT), while others will use a hybrid format, incorporating both CBT and traditional pen-and-paper methods.
