Dear Hemant,

Whether you can appear in the NET Exam even if you are 34 years age depends totally on the post for which you are willing to apply.

I Mean to say that the National Eligibility Test is conducted for the following posts :

a) Junior Research Fellowship

b) Lectureship


Now , if you want to apply for the Junior Research Fellowship post , then sorry to say but you cannot apply because the age limit for this post is just 21-28 years.

However , you can apply for the post of lectureship , at any age because there is no age bar in NET Exam for this post.

Considering the age limit , to be eligible to appear in the NET Exam , you too have to fulfill the other required criteria that are mentioned below :

* you must have completed post graduation in any stream from any recognized university.

* you must have secured a minimum of 55% marks in post graduation.

* There is a relaxation of 5% marks for candidates belonging to SC/ST Category.

* No Relaxation in marks is provided to OBC Candidates.

* Candidates in final year of post graduation can also apply for the National Eligibility Test.

* There is no bar on the number of attempts for this exam.

Note : University Grants Commission (UGC) conducts the National Eligibility Test twice in a year in the months of June and December.

This is the information i have to the best of my knowledge regarding your query. Hope the information will help you to the extent you want.

There is difference between National Eligibility Test is other entrance exams conducted by the central government. In most entrance exams, 30 years is the maximum age limit, but this rule is not followed for National Eligibility Test.

The University Grants Commission conducts the National Eligibility Test for JRF and lectureship. The age limit depends on whether you are applying for Junior Research Fellowship or the lectureship.

The age limit is 28 years if applying for the Junior Research Fellowship, however if your intention is to apply for college lectureship, then you don't have to worry about age limit.

There is no upper age limit for the college lectureship candidates. You will be able to apply for the entrance exam if lectureship is your target. But not in the case of JRF. I am writing down all the criteria for the exam below.


Eligibility

1. Ensure you have post graduation degree.

2. The degree should be completed with at least 55 percent marks.

3. SC/ST need 50 percent marks.

4. There is no relaxation for OBC.

5. You can also appear for NET during final year of PG course.

6. Your NET subject should be related to PG course.

7. There is no limit on the attempts for NET.

8. Age limit for JRF is 28 years.

9. OBC candidates applying for JRF have 31 years as age limit.

10. Similarly SC/ST candidates have 33 years as age limit.

11. But for lectureship, there is no upper age limit.

Upper age limit for NET is constrained only for JRF. For this candidate must be below 28 years. There are no upper age restrictions for JRF (Lectureship). Apart from this, you need to have master’s degree from a recognized institute. The qualification must be obtained with a minimum of 55% marks.
