Educational qualification
10+2 (or an equivalent qualification) from a recognised board, in any stream, subject to the individual university's requirement.
Mathematics at 10+2
Requirement varies by university. Several ask for Mathematics or Computer Science as a 10+2 subject; others admit students from any stream, sometimes with a bridge or foundation paper.
Minimum marks
University-specific. Some publish a minimum aggregate at 10+2; others admit on the qualification alone, occasionally with a relaxation for reserved categories.
Entrance examination
Not a general requirement for this course. Most universities in our dataset admit directly on 10+2 marks; verify with the specific university before applying.
Eligibility rules, especially around 10+2 mathematics, differ noticeably between universities and can change between admission cycles. Confirm the current requirement on the official page of the university and admission year you are applying for.
University-wise BCA eligibility
Eligibility for the Online BCA is not a single national rule — each university sets its own qualifying marks, relaxations and entrance requirement inside the UGC framework. 1 of 13 universities here reference an entrance or aptitude test (Sharda Online); the rest admit directly on qualifying marks.
