Eligibility Criteria for NDA - Army Wing:
1. You have to pass 12th from any recognized university .
2. age limit = 16 to 19 years

Eligibility Criteria for NDA - Naval Wing & Air Force Wing:
1.You have to pass 12th from any recognized university with physics and math .
2. age limit = 16 to 19 years

The appearing students are also can apply but within specified date by UPSC you have to submit your result of 12th.

So it is clear that if you are interested in NDA then you have to select science.

thank you
