For appearing students they must produce their degree certificate within one year from the date of this test, otherwise they will be disqualified. The candidates who have pursued the degree as specified by UGC only are eligible for the exam. The candidate can appear for the related subject as studied in graduation. If the subjects are not covered as per UGC specification they can appear for their related subjects. The candidates qualifying the exam will be called for document verification at final stage.

The candidates who have qualified the SET exam are also eligible to appear for this. The SET qualified candidates are eligible for post of lecturer only to the specific state from where they are qualified.

Qualifying examinations for UGC-NET

The candidates those who have completed their post graduation in related subjects can appear for the exam. Those who have acquired post graduation from any recognized university are eligible for applying UGC-NET exam.

Exemption and Eligibility for Lectureship

The NET will be compulsory even for the candidates with Ph.D. The NET is must for the post of lecturer. There will be some exemptions for the M.Phil candidates. Those who have submitted their Ph.D thesis to the University before 31 December 2002 are avoided from this exam. Also those who have pursued M.Phil by 31 December 1993 are exempted from this.
