To get admission in BA English honours, you need to have scored really well in your board examination. The competition level for admission in St.Xaviers College for BA English Honours is quite tough. Therefore, you need to have scored at least 85% in your English and above 70% in aggregate.

However, the minimum eligibility requirement for admission in that you should have scored at least 60% in aggregate and 60% in English, but chances are very ew if you have scored this much marks.
