Hi Kavya,

To become Journalist, you can either choose to go for graduation or you can simply explore out and visit out to news companies and have yourself a work there.

You must have a good set of skills of communication, presentation and situation management.

Here are some courses you can opt after your Class 12th completion:
1. B.sc in Sports Journalism
2. B.A in Professional Journalism
3. B.A in Investigative Journalism
4. B.sc in Trade Journalism
5. B.A in Innovation Journalism
6. B.sc in Fashion Journalism

In order to become a news presenter after completion of your 12th standard, you should get admission in Mass Communication course in a recognized university and after completion of your course, I am sure you will be very much eligible to apply for any good post in any recognized news channel or agency.

To become a Journalist in future, candidates must have to complete a Bachelors degree in either Journalism or Mass Communication.
Candidates those who have completed their class 12th or equivalent in any discipline from a recognised Board can opt for a degree course in above mentioned field.
So, you must opt the said course in order to achieve your dream.
