hi,

the eligibility criteria to pursue M.A in english is Candidates who have pursued a BA in English or equivalent degree with a minimum overall aggregate of 50% are eligible to apply. however eligibility and marks criteria may differ college to college. since you did not mention about the entrance name,  you have to go through the official brochure of admission to know the exact eligibility criteria.

however open university like IGNOU has m.a in english program which you may apply, eligibility states that, candidates must hold a bachelors degree from a recognized university.
