The UDISE Plus portal has introduced an improved Student Release Request Management system to make student transfers between schools easier. This feature is particularly helpful when schools are unable to import students from Class 2 to Class 12 after admission due to technical or record-related issues.
Instead of manually resolving the problem, the receiving school can now send an online release request to the student’s previous school. Once the request is approved, the student’s academic record becomes available in the new school’s UDISE Plus account.

Why Was This Feature Introduced?
Many schools face difficulties while adding students who have transferred from another institution, especially those studying in Classes 2 to 12. Even after obtaining a valid Transfer Certificate (TC), the student record may not appear in the receiving school’s portal.
The Student Release Request system solves this issue by allowing both schools to complete the transfer digitally through the UDISE Plus portal, reducing delays and maintaining accurate student records.

How the Previous School Processes the Request
The school where the student was previously enrolled must log in to its UDISE Plus account.
Navigate to:
Student Release Management → Within State → Approve Student Release Request
The school administrator can review:
- Student details
- Request number
- Current request status
If everything is correct and the student has already left the school with a valid Transfer Certificate, the administrator should approve the request.
When Should the Request Be Rejected?
A request should not be approved if:
- The student is still enrolled in the previous school.
- Incorrect student information has been entered.
- The request has been generated by mistake.
- The transfer details do not match school records.
In such situations, the administrator should choose the appropriate rejection remark before submitting the response.
