Can I still apply online if I change my mind later?

Yes, absolutely. Even after submitting documents in person initially, you still have the option to apply online later if you change your mind. Here are the steps to apply online after submitting documents at an IGNOU centre:

1) Go to the IGNOU admission portal: [https://ignouadmission.samarth.edu.in/ ↗](https://ignouadmission.samarth.edu.in/)

2) Click on "Register Now" to create your login credentials. Use the same name and details you mentioned in the physical form.  

3) Login using the credentials you just created.

4) Fill the online application form with the same information as in your physical form.

5) Upload scanned copies of the documents you previously submitted in person.

6) Double check that all information and documents are correctly uploaded.

7) Pay the requisite programme fee and registration fee online using any of the available payment options.

8) Take a printout of the completed application form for your own records.

Once your online application is submitted, the regional centre staff will mark your physical application as 'cancelled' to avoid duplication. They'll also refund the fee you paid in cash if required.

So in short, yes you can definitely apply online even after submitting documents in person initially. Applying online offers the following benefits:

- Flexibility to apply from anywhere

- Ability to upload multiple documents in one go 

- Online payment options for convenient fee payment

- Ease of form filling and editing details (compared to physical form)
