I am from DU and I'll complete our graduation this year but my age is under 20(above 19).So,can I apply for bank po this year?

To be eligible for Bank PO positions, age limit should be 20 to 30 years for General Candidates. Candidate should complete his/her graduation in any discipline with prescribed percentage marks defined by respective Bank. Normally it will be 55 % or 60%.

Generally Banks will fix a cut off date for Age & Education fulfilments. That means as on cut off date Candidate should be in the age limit and should have respective educational qualifications. Some times banks in the notification also mention that who have attended the final exams and waiting for results are also eligible to apply.

To get the clear information it would be good to read the Bank PO notification. It will mention clearly about age and educational qualifications.

Yes definitely you can apply for banking jobs after completing your graduation but you can apply for clerical jobs because for that minimum age required is 18 and maximum is 45 years but still the eligibility criteria changes from bank to bank so you have to check the eligibility criteria before applying.
For other Manager jobs candidate must have attained the age of 21.

Yes, you can't apply for IBPS entrance examination for recruitment as PO before 20 years.

So, I suggest you to complete your Bachelor's degree course from a recognized university and by that time, you will attain the age of 21 years and you are eligible to apply for bank examinations.
