10+2 and an entrance exam is the first step, prefer to do a Diploma or foundation certificate course. If not, Bachelors, is the best way to start out. Later on, if you want to go deeper, then an MBA in tourism and travels will be nice.

Hi,
If you are doing BCA, I would recommend you to complete it. BCA is a good course with bright job opportunities. Since you are interested in pursuing travel and tourism, yes, Bachelors is a good idea. Or how about a Masters like MBA in travel and tourism? If you want to take it slow and figure out, then go for a Diploma or a certificate foundation course.

Hi,
You have a host of options. You can choose to do a certificate course or a Diploma. Or, you can take up Bachelors in travel and tourism. 10+2 and an entrance exam would be the most basic gateway for the Bachelors. One suggestion is, when you do the Bachelors also use networking skills to find an internship too. It stands out in the crowd when you later apply for jobs.

Hi Roshni!
The minimum percentage required to be eligible for B.Com is not mentioned on the official website of the university. Although usually 50% is the minimum that's accepted, I would suggest you should consult the university itself for the details.
