One Nation, One Student ID — APAAR

APAAR (Automated Permanent Academic Account Registry) is a unique academic identity system for all students in India under the NEP 2020 initiative. The APAAR ID is a 12-digit permanent academic number that stores a student’s academic journey — scorecards, grade sheets, degrees, certificates and achievements — as a lifetime digital academic ID.
