Absolutely pradeep you are eligible for CDS examination on the basis of your graduation degree i.e BSc.

Minimum educational qualification required to be eligible for Combined Defence Services (CDS) examination is to be graduate in any stream except fine arts. There is no minimum percentage of marks required to be eligible.Well if someone is willing to join Navy or Air force wing then he must have pass 10+2 with Physics and Mathematics. The candidate must be male indian within the age limit of 19 to 23 years on the date of commecement of training. No age relaxation is provided to any candidate in any condition.

Therefore as per your age you will be eligible to appear for the examination. Please note that final year/semester appearing students can also appear for the examination so you can also apply for the examination provisionally while appearing in the final year.

Hello friend ....

CDS is the entrance exam for getting into the Indian army,Air force and the Navy.CDS stands for the Combined Defence Services.It is conducted twice every year by the UPSC .

The eligibility criteria for the CDA entrance exam is that the candidates should have passed their graduation from any discipline but from a recognized university .

The age limits for the same is between 19 years to 25 years for the general category candidates.
Also there is the upper age relaxation for the OBC of 3 years and for te SC/ST it is 5 years.

Except for the Army wing , for the rest two wing that is the Air force and the navy wing you need to have the engineering degree from the recognized university.
But for the Army wing simple graduation form any discipline is eligible.

And ya of course you are eligible for the CDA exam after you graduation is completed.
So study well and do hard works to qualify the CDS entrance exam and make your country proud on you.

Here I have even attached the complete detailed information regarding the CDS exam.But then also if you need some other info you can visit the UPSC official website : http://www.upsc.gov.in

Thumbs up Re: Am I eligible for CDS after completing my graduation?

Hi friend,

You are surely eligible for appearing in CDS exam after finishing your graduation. CDS is the exam conducted by Combined Defense Service. It is to allow the peoples to join in Indian Army, Navy and Air force.

1. For I.M.A. and Officers’ Training Academy-You require Degree from a recognised University or equivalent.

2. For joining in Indian Naval Academy :You require a Degree in Engineering.

3. For Joining in Air Force Academy :You require a Degree of Recognized University (with Physics and Mathematics at 10+2 level) or Bachelor of Engineering.

Thus you would have understood that you are eligible for joining in army and
air force but not in Navy.
