    dear aspirant to apply for the upsc exams, you need to become eligible for the exam,
    so eligibility criteria is the most essential thing,

    final year student can also apply for the exam,


    AGE LIMITS


    candidate should have attained the age of atleast 21 years to become eligible for the exam,
    age limit for the exam is 21 to 30 years,
    upsc provides age relaxation to the category like OBC and SC/ST,

    age relaxation of 5 years is given to SC/ST candidates.

    Dear Friend,

    UPSC Stands for "Union Public Service Commission".

    * UPSC Conducts a number of examinations per year which are mentioned below :

    a) Civil services Examination

    b) NDA & NA Examination

    c) Combined Defence Services Examination

    e) Indian Engineering Services Examination

    f) Indian Forest Services Examination

    g) Central Police Forces Examination

    i) Junior Work Manager Examination.


    Now , The qualifications required for each of the examinations differ from one another so , its quite impossible to mention the required qualifications for each of these UPSC exams here.

    In my opinion , it will be better that first you choose a specific examination about which you want the information , then we will provide you the same.

    This is the information i have to the best of my knowledge regarding your query. Hope the information will help you to the extent you want.
