History

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 12^th stream.

So I would suggest you to check the specific eligibility requirement (if any) in advance so as to avoid any future discrepancies. The eligibility criteria for the courses is subject to change every year.
