See it depends on the paper level every year as we see in 2024 particularly in CUET the cut off for most of top colleges in South campus ARSD and VENKY.it ranges from 720/800 to 730/800. So it depends on various factors how much student apply for course and how much the merit goes for best north campus colleges idk but it would be high as 780 or 750 something .

Well, this is a very subjective question. Some candidates would prefer Diploma in Ancient Indian History, Culture and Archaeology because the coursework perfectly aligns with their interests in literature, archaeological heritage and Indian culture. Also, it is conducted in an online mode for the duration of one year. On the other hand, other candidates might be interested in pursuing an MA in History even if takes two years for completion as it offers a detailed understanding of past history and civilizations.

So you should think about your interest areas, future goals, and the amount of time you can invest in the course. Once you are

The duration of certificate courses in History is usually 1 year or less. For example, the short term certificate course in History offered by the National Archives of India can be completed within 8 weeks depending upon the specialisation you choose. Also, the certificate course in History at KJ Somaiya College of Arts and Commerce is a 2-month part-time course which you can easily complete along with your studies.

Well, it is not compulsory to appear for the CUET-UG exam for admission in undergraduate History courses but all the top universities and colleges in India provide admission either through CUET or conduct their university-specific entrance exams such as IPU-CET, JMI entrance, etc. So it is better to prepare for CUET and score good marks in the exam to become eligible for admission to various popular History courses at top universities across India.

Rest, you can also look for easy options to get admission on a merit basis in some of the private Indian colleges by paying high annual college fees. The choice is yours!

Yes, of course, you can opt for an undergraduate History course or a certificate course after securing 55% marks in your Class 12th board exams. For a BA degree in History, you will have to appear for any of the national/state-level entrance exams such as CUET-UG, IPU CET, or others and score good marks.

Talking about the certificate courses, both online and offline, you need not give any entrance exam and can directly enroll yourself in the course by filling the application form and paying the fees.

Dear aspirant, you can definitely pursue a BA in History or History Honors at Delhi University despite being a Science student. The only thing that you need to do is to get a good CUET score as the cut-off marks are quite high for some of the top colleges. Further, apart from selecting your Class 12 subjects, there may be an additional requirement for you to select History subject in the exam form for securing admission to the course. For example, to get admission to an Economics Honors course at Delhi University, candidates need to opt for Mathematics as one of the domain subjects in the CUET exam, regardless of the Class 12th stream.

You will have to appear for the CUET-UG entrance exam in the subjects you studied in Class 12, which takes place every year for admission to various courses at top Indian universities such as Delhi University, Jawaharlal Nehru University, Jamia Millia Islamia, etc. Also, Stephens College, DU conducts an interview round after you get shortlisted through CUET.

However, if you wish to pursue the course on a merit-basis then you will have to explore other college options in India that do not require any entrance exam or face-to-face interview rounds.
