Hey there
Good to see that you are thinking a very great thing to become an IAS officer. See to be eligible to sit in an upsc cse exam you must have at least a graduation degree in any stream from any recognised university.
That doesn't matters online/offline/open or regular.
So be clear that you are totally eligible just start your preparation and keep going.
Best of luck!
Thank you!
Hello Aspirant,
Hope you are doing well.
Since the minimum educational qualification for UPSC is a bachelor's degree. It is important to have a bachelor's qualification. Even those candidates who have written the final year exams of the qualifying exam (bachelor's degree) and are awaiting results can apply. so if you are in the final semester or had written the final exams can apply for the UPSC exam.
Hope this information is useful. Feel Free to ask any other queries.
