Yes. An arts student is eligible to appear in NDA exam after 12th. But you cannot join in Navy or Airforce. Because the requirements for the candidates to appear in NDA is that you must have finished your 12th std and your age must be above 19 and below 21. In addition to that you must have taken science as your stream in 12th std to appear in NDA and join in Navy or Airforce.

Thus if you are ready to join in Army you can appear for NDA exam.

NATIONAL DEFENSE ACADEMY(NDA) NDA is the entrance exam conducted every year twice a time by UPSC.NDA-I and NDA-II are the two exams conducted every year.As NDA exam is very tough exam so you need to work very hard in your present time subjects.It does not matter whether you are from science or arts stream,any stream students can apply for it.To apply you need to buy NDA form from a saler.Its form is not costly.So now you must complete your 12th standard with good percentage and then apply for NDA exam.Here i am providing you eligiblity criteria for NDA exam. ELIGIBLITY-You must be 12th passed in any stream with minimum 50 percent marks.Your age must be 16.5-19 years of age.

Hi


NDA stands for the National Defense Academy and it is an entrance exam which is conducted by the UPSC every year to select candidates for the Indian Army, Navy and Air Force.


The Basic Eligibility Criteria's for the NDA are :

1. You should be an Indian National and Unmarried Male Candidate.

2. You must have passed class 12th from a recognized school or state board securing atleast 50% aggregate in it.

3. Your age should be within 16.5 to 19 years. No relaxations

4. You should have studied Maths and Physics is you wish to apply for the Indian Navy or IAF.



Now as per your question, I am really sorry to say that no arts student can apply for the NDA exam.

Its because it is a science stream exam. However if you have studied arts, then first of all you must complete your graduation in some stream and then later you can apply for the NDA 2 exam.


However if you need more information regarding this, Please Click Here to visit the UPSC website.

The official NDA 2012 notification would be published in this today.


Also you may read EMPLOYMENT NEWS to get more updates.


Hope this helps

All the best

Regards
