Hi, i am pursing MCA via distance education(Lateral entry) and also have done MSC -IT via distance(Lateral entry). can i appear for UGC-NET?

If your education satisfies the following criterion then you are eligible for UGC-NET examination.

1. Your marks in MCA / MSc-IT is 55% or more in aggregate.
2. The university from where you have done the course is approved by
"Distance Education Council (DEC)" for conducting the course.

If you satisfy both the above mentioned criteria, then you are eligible to appear for
UGC-NET examination.

UGC conducts the NET examination twice a year generally, one in June and other in
December month.

Most definitely you can apply for the National Eligibility Test. You can apply it with M.Sc or MCA course. The choice is yours. All you need is minimum of 55 percent marks in that degree to be eligible for the National Eligibility Test.


There will be no problem applying for NET exam with MCA degree despite the fact that you completed it through distance education. If your college is approved by the University Grants Commission then you can definitely apply for NET with MCA degree. However if the college is not recognized by the UGC then unfortunately you can't appear for the National Eligibility Test.
