It is important that the candidates check the course code for the SWAYAM 2026 semester exam during the correction window for a few important reasons:-

• SWAYAM course certifications allow students to transfer academic credits into their parent university degrees under the University Grants Commission (UGC) guidelines. 
• Candidates should make sure that the exact course title and host university or faculty code selected on NTA matches the institution's approved list.
• Candidates who register for multiple certification exams must also cross-check that their selected subjects do not fall into the overlapping time slots on the final exam timetable. Use the upcoming correction window to resolve any accidental slot clashes.
