    Hello,
    Civil Services Examination is conducted by UPSC every year for the recruitment of candidates for the post of IAS, IRS, IPS.
    And Yes a Hotel Management graduate can appear for the Civil Services Examination Since you satisfy the Educational eligibility criteria which is as follows:

    The candidate must hold any degree in any discipline from any recognized university
    Final year degree students are also eligible
    Degree obtained by distance education/open university is also eligible if the university is a recognized university

    For further details refer the pdf attached below and for Previous Years Question Papers you can refer www.upsc.gov.in
    You can fill the online application form from the official website www.upsconline.nic.in

    With your degree of B.SC in Hotel Management you can apply for the IPS exams for which you need to appear in the UPSC Civil Services Exams

    UPSC Civil Services Exams are held in three stages:
    Prelims
    MAINS
    Interview

    Graduation in any stream can sit in the Prelims exams
    Age between 21 and 30 years
    4 attempts are allowed for General candidates

    In the Prelims there are no optional papers, but just two papers which are common for all the candidates.

    If you clear the Prelims Exams Than in the Mains exams there are 5 appers which is common for all the candidates and you have to choose one optional papers
