Hello,

There are plethora of options after 12th with arts background, but eventually it depends on various factors such as your interest, aptitude, skills, the kind of job profile you're looking at after graduation etc,

if you're academically inclined then go ahead with BA Hons in your preferred subjects, it can be anything such as economics, geography, sociology, psychology to name a few, this is something you have to find out on your own as in which subject you like and wish to pursue it ahead, followed it by MA in the same discipline, and then you can qualify for UGC NET for JRF and lectureship, other than this there are recruitment of assistant professors at state level such as SETs, for teaching at school level you have to do BEd,

you can go for integrated law courses, for which many top entrance tests are conducted such as CLAT/AILET/BLAT/LSAT to name a few, law is quite a good option in terms of a professional course,

if you're interested in management studies, then you can either go for BBA/BMS/BBS or there are integrated program in management offered by selective IIMs such as Rohtak/Indore/Ranchi for which you need to appear for IPMAT, and from last year IIM bodhgaya and jammu are conducting admission through JIPMAT, there are various other universities as well offering this integrated management studies which you can consider,

you can go for journalism and mass communication if you aim to have a career in the domain of media , other than this there are fashion designing, hotel management, fine arts to name a few, check out the entire details at https://school.careers360.com/articles/courses-after-12th
