Hello,

In order to study BSc. Geography (Hons.), a candidate must pass 10+2 with Science subjects. As you were a student of Arts, you cannot go for BSc. Geography (Hons.).

You can opt for BA Geography (Hons.), where candidates have to pass 10+2 or an equivalent examination in Arts stream from a recognized board. Students have to secure 45% of marks to obtain entry requirements for this course. The percentage can vary from one college to another. There might be entrance tests too, depending on the college you choose to study in.

Some of the top colleges where you can study BA Geography (Hons.) are:

  1. Lovely Professional University, Delhi
  2. GD Goenka University, Gurgaon
  3. PDM University, Bahadurgarh
  4. Indraprastha College for Women, Delhi
  5. Vidyasagar College, Kolkata
  6. Shaheed Bhagat Singh College, Delhi

Hope this helps!
