Curious About UGC NET Eligibility? Here's What You Need to Know Before Applying

What is the eligibility criteria for UGC NET?

The eligibility criteria for UGC NET vary depending on the subject and category of the candidate. However, in general, candidates must have a Master's degree or equivalent with at least 55% marks (50% for OBC/SC/ST/PwD candidates) from a recognized university. Additionally, candidates appearing in the final year of their Master's degree are also eligible to apply.

Moreover, there is no age limit for the UGC NET exam. Candidates can check the detailed eligibility criteria on the official UGC NET website before applying for the exam.

If you have any specific questions regarding the eligibility criteria for UGC NET, feel free to ask for more information.

Hi Mishal,

To qualify for the UGC NET, you must have a master's degree. You can choose any subject from your master's degree for the exam. The UGC NET consists of three papers:

1) General studies (50 objective questions)
2) Your optional paper (50 objective questions)
3) Your optional paper (subjective questions)

The second paper will be checked only after qualifying the first paper, and the third paper will be checked after qualifying the second paper. Therefore, it is essential to qualify in the first and second papers.

Dear Sir,

I have completed my PG DIPLOMA IN MANAGEMENT (Marketing) from IPM LUCKNOW. I wanted to confirm whether I am eligible for NET exams. If not, what options are available? Please reply to this query.

Thank you.

I have appeared for B.A. (Gen) final exam this year. I want to go for M.A., but the problem is no university would admit me as a regular candidate. So, if I do M.A. from IGNOU, would I be eligible for appearing in NET? What are my options then?

I have completed my PGDCA (Post Graduation Diploma in Computer Application). I want to ask if I am eligible to appear for the UGC NET test.
