    Hello,

    ​As you have mentioned in the post that you have completed your Graduation from US , but friend you can apply for IAS exam only when the institution that you have studied into must be recognized one , and also you must have a valid passport and Indian Citizenship ID proof , as this will be required from you , before applying for IAS entrance exam .

    GOOD LUCK !

    hi
    I am very sorry to say but you are not eligible for giving the IAS exam, as you do not fill up the eligibility criteria for appearing in the exam.
    For giving this exam, you need to be a citizen of inida and you should have completed your graduation in any stream from a recognized indian university and your age should be in between 21-30 years.
    And as you did not completed your degree from an Indian university hence you are not eligible for it
