Now if oyu belong to the sc/st category then only you are eligible for giving the exam else there is no possibility for you to get into the IAS anymore

Re: Can I apply for IAS exam at the age of 34 with BA as my qualification?

If you have done BA then it is simple to submit an application for IAS evaluation since you've got plenty of instructional training course but the truth is get revealed that you've got done 34 years so I will declare i am sorry that you're not eligible to this particular hiring since minimal age group control will be 30 ages to get ICS evaluation that you've got currently surpassed 4 years back option to the chance to get you which ones is when people belongs to either SC - Appointed Caste or ST - Appointed Indigneous group or ESM - Ex-Servicemen or beneath PWD - Particular person With Handicap or Central Administration Worker you very well may declare to get uppr age group leisure as per federal expectations and that leisure are going to be given to people as per principles from the key federal with Indian - 5 ages to get SC/ST/ESM/CGE along with 10 ages in case of PWD candidates. 9 ages uppr age group leisure to get Widow/Divorced/Separate Woman's candidates.

Yet if you're beneath Normal or OBC type plus there is no chance available for you to get this particular evaluation nevertheless you can't possibly be frustrated in cases like this since there are numerous various other techniques for finding employment in federal team which usually does not interest on age group means you could possibly submit an application for just about any period with this and that approach is - UGC - College Allows Commission rate

UGC perform NET - National Qualifications Check for any post with lecturer in various federal instructional institutions nevertheless to get this particular examination, you will have passed customer's diploma or post move on diploma in a different discipline from your recognized school along with needs to have scored not less than 55% marks in aggregate along with 50% marks in case of SC/ST/PWD type candidatesSince you will be move on in BA so you are entitled to get looking in civil assistance examination.But apart from minimal instructional certification commission rate in addition has build quite a few age group rules prior to signing up to this civil solutions examination.So if perhaps you are in unreserved type that may be remain in basic type then you are not necessarily eligible to looking primarily evaluation as the minimal age group limits will be 21 ages even so the uppr age group limits will be 30 ages to get unreserved type along with even when you remain in OBC about to catch suitable because the utmost age group control will be relaxed by 3 years and how old you are will be 34.However if you remain in SC/ST you very well may seem because uppr age group control age group relaxed by 5 ages to get them.

Re: Can I apply for IAS exam at the age of 34 with BA as my qualification?

Dear Aspirant
As you have passed Graduation you became eligible for IAS exam,but after
that you age is of 34 years which exceeds maximum age for qualify in IAS
exam,So if you are from General Category then I am.afraid that you are not
eligible for IAS exam as for IAS exam the Maximum age is 30 Yeats and the
age relaxation for OBC is also 3 Yeats,which also exceed in your case.

there is only one way that if you are from SC category then you are eligible
for IAS exam because for SC category there is no age limits and no limited chances
to clear IAS exam.

Re: Can I apply for IAS exam at the age of 34 with BA as my qualification?

If you are a general candidate you are not eligible for IAS examination.

If you are interested in the IAS examination you must satisfy the below conditions

You have to complete the graduation from any recognized university.

And the age is 21-30 years.The upper age limit will be applicable for ST/SC/OBC candidates.

3 years for OBC
5 years for ST/SC

So check you are eligible or not.

Re: Can I apply for IAS exam at the age of 34 with BA as my qualification?

If you have completed BA then you can easily apply for IAS examination because you have enough educational qualification but you have explained that you have completed 34 years of age so I would like to say sorry that you are not eligible for this recruitment because minimum age limit is 30 years for ICS examination that you have already crossed 4 years ago but there is a chance for you which is that if you belongs to either SC - Scheduled Caste or ST - Scheduled Tribe or ESM - Ex-Servicemen or under PWD - Person With Disability or Central Government Employee then you may claim for upper age relaxation as per government standards and that relaxation will be provided to you as per rules of the central government of India - 5 years for SC/ST/ESM/CGE and 10 years in case of PWD candidates. 9 years upper age relaxation for Widow/Divorced/Separate Female candidates.

But if you are under General or OBC category then there is no chance for you to apply for this examination but you should not be disappointed in this case because there are some other ways to get job in government department which does not demand for age means you may apply for any stage of the age and that way is - UGC - University Grants Commission

UGC conduct NET - National Eligibility Test for the post of lecturer in various government educational institutes but to apply for this exam, you should have passed master's degree or post graduate degree in any discipline from a recognized university and must have scored at least 55% marks in aggregate and 50% marks in case of SC/ST/PWD category candidates

For more details I have attached UPSC ICS exam notification about age issue and to get more details about UGC NET, you should visit at www.ugcnetonline.in
