Understanding Transfer of Credit (ToC) in NIOS Admission Class 10 & 12 Online

If you’ve already passed certain subjects in another recognized board and want to save time and effort during your NIOS admission, you can apply for Transfer of Credit (ToC).

This powerful feature allows you to carry forward marks from previously passed subjects so that you don’t have to reappear for those exams under NIOS.

What is Transfer of Credit (ToC) in NIOS?

ToC means transferring marks from previously passed subjects in your earlier board (CBSE, State Board, etc.) to your NIOS certificate, so you can avoid reappearing for those subjects again.
