Re: What are the criteria for female candidates to join Indian Air Force?

First thing I would like to let you know that being a female candidate you are not eligible to join any wings of Indian defense services after completing your Class 12th as for female candidates the minimum education required to join Indian Air force is a bachelor degree from a recognized university.

Further, to join Air force Academy you will be required to qualify either CDS ( Combined Defense Services ) or AFCAT ( Air force Common Admission Test ) once you complete your bachelor degree course.

Indian Army.

Indian Navy.

Indian Air Force.

The eligibility criteria is that only unmarried male Indian candidates can apply for NDA examination. Female candidates cannot apply for this exam.

Female candidates who want to join Indian Air Force can apply for AFCAT or CDS exam after bachelor's degree.

Female candidates are not eligible to join Indian Air Force after 12th.

The minimum required qualification is that candidate must have passed bachelor degree from a recognised university.

AFCAT examination will be conducted in two stages and you have to qualify in Written and SSB for final selection.

AFCAT examination is conducted twice in a year by Indian Air Force.

Being a girl candidate and class 12th pursuing student there is no type of entry which will give you job in the Indian Defense sector even after completion your class 12th.

But you can join the same through CDS and AFCAT after completion your Graduation with Physics or Mathematics or any engineering stream from a recognized university.

CDS stands for Combined Defense Services and to join Indian Air Force through same your age need to lie within 19 to 23 years.

AFCAT stands Air Force Common Admission Test and for entry through AFCAT your age need to lie within 20 to 24 years.

Re: What are the criteria for female candidates to join Indian Air Force?

Sorry, to say that you are not eligible to join Indian Air Force after completion of your 12th standard being a female candidate. To join Indian Air Force through NDA examination, you should be an unmarried male candidate in the age range of 16.5 to 19.5 years. You should have passed 12th standard or an equivalent examination with Physics and Mathematics subjects from a Government recognised board. So, being a female candidate, you are not eligible to apply for NDA examination for joining in Indian Air Force.

Re: What are the criteria for female candidates to join Indian Air Force?

There are several ways to join Indian Air Force and one of the best way for 12th completed candidates is through "National Defence Academy/ Naval Academy". But female candidates are not eligible to appear in NDA/ NA Examination which is conducted by Union Public Service Commission. But there are some other ways through which you can join Indian Air Force.

You may also join Indian Air Force through "Combined Defence Services" (CDS) Exam conducted by UPSC. For appearing in this examination also, the minimum qualification required is Graduation. Hence, I suggest you to first pursue Graduation, so that you will be eligible to apply for CDS as girls are also allowed. There are several wings available in CDS.

<> Age required for CDS - 20 to 24 years

<> Qualification Required for CDS (Air Force Academy Wing): Degree from a recognized university (with Physics and Mathematics at 12th level) or Bachelor of Engineering.
