Greetings candidate,
MA PHILOSOPHY is basically a 2 year postgraduate course in India which is offered by many universities and colleges throughout the country. Also the admission is given based on entrance exams as well by cut off lists.
So it varies from college to college.
However the basic eligibility is that you should have cleared your bachelor degree from some recognised institution with philosophy as one of the major subject.
The following is the list of colleges offering this course -
