Dear friend

Sorry to say that there is no chance for you to appear for the NDA examinations at the age of 20 years because the maximum age limit to appear for the NDA examinations are 19 years as per rules and regulations of UPSC and also there is one fact that no relaxation in age is provided to candidates of any category.

If you are so much interested in joining defense there are two more options left for you but both are at bachelor's degree level.

First one is the CDS that is Combined defense services examinations.

This exam is held twice every year by the UPSC .You need to be a graduate in order to apply for this examination.

The age limit for different academies are as follows:

Indian Military academy:19-24 years

Indian naval academy:19-22 years

Officer's training academy:19-25 years

Indian air force academy:19-23 years.

>>You must be an Indian citizen.Both male and female candidates can apply for the examinations.

You must be physically fit .

For further details ,you may visit www.upsc.gov.in

The second option for you is Technical entry scheme.It is for those candidates who want to join army.

The eligibility for this exam is that you must have secure at least 75 % in PCM of your 10+2 from a recognized board.

As far as I am concerned the age limit is 17-21 years.But I will suggest you to kindly check it out from the official website that www.joinindianarmy.nic.in.

Candidates are shortlisted depending upon the cut off marks set by the Board and are sent letters for direct SSB without giving any written test.

Note: If you are pursuing you bachelor's degree in engineering/technology/science then you may also go for the University Entry scheme.

>>Both TES and UES are for joining the Indian army.

Hope the information helps you.


all the best

NDA- National defenece Academy

Eligibility for NDA exam -

Age between 16.5 years to 19 years.

Only unmarried male candidtes can apply.

The exam is conducted in three stages.

These are the successive stages.
