Colleges in Shimoga

Hi.

Yes — given that you have completed BCA and have written Karnataka PGCET (or equivalent as required), you can be eligible for Kuvempu University for MCA — provided you meet its eligibility conditions.

 What official eligibility says at Kuvempu University

For MCA at Kuvempu University, one of the accepted qualifications is a BCA degree (or a B.Sc. / B.A. / B.Com with required maths background). 

The eligibility requirement includes having had “Mathematics/Business Mathematics” either at 10+2 level (or in graduation) for non‑CS B.Sc./B.A./B.Com entrants — but since you have BCA, that part is already satisfied. 

For general (unreserved) category, the required aggregate in graduation is usually 50%. For reserved categories (as per state norms), there is relaxation (e.g. 45%).

Admissions are based on PGCET (or the university's entrance exam if seats remain unfilled) at Kuvempu.
