Hi Twisha,
Here are the eligibility criteria to pursue CFA:
1) To have a Bachelor's (or equivalent) degree, or be in the final year of your Bachelor's degree programme at the time of registration, or have four years of professional work experience (does not have to be investment related), or have a combination of professional work and college experience that totals at least four years. Part-time positions do not qualify, and the four-year total must be accrued prior to enrollment.
2) Have a valid international travel passport (required for enrollment and exam registration).
3) Candidates with a degree in progress: If you initially enroll/register as a final year undergraduate student with a degree in progress, you may not register for the Level II exam until you have earned your degree, or obtained professional work experience that meets the programs entrance requirements. When your degree is awarded, update your account education information to certify that your degree has been received.

A number of universities are offering graduate and post graduate courses in actuarial sciences. Mere completion of such courses does not make one eligible to practice as an actuary, but such courses give students better conceptual clarity and training by experts in a classroom environment which makes them better equipped than if they directly write papers of ASI through self study. To qualify as an Actuary, a candidate has to pass all examinations in the prescribed subjects conducted by the professional examining body such as the Actuarial Society of India and the Institute of Actuaries, UK. Any person with minimum 18 years of age and having a high degree of aptitude for mathematics and statistics can take up the course and become an Actuary.
