Hi

Which course in computer science are you asking about?

In case, you are asking about Bsc computer science then you are not eligible being an arts student. Similarly, if you are asking about btech computer science then you are not eligible.

This is because,
To be eligible for bsc computer science or btech computer science, it's mandatory to have Subjects like Maths, physics & chemistry

For reference,
You can check DU bsc computer science eligible criteria at :- https://university.careers360.com/articles/du-bsc-eligibility-criteria

BIT Sindri, Dhanbad btech computer science eligibility criteria:-

But in case,

If you are asking about computer courses like BCA i. e Bachelor's in computer application.

Then yes, you are definitely eligible even if you are an arts student.

For your reference,

BCA eligibility criteria is given below :-

>>>>>>>> BCA eligibility criteria



  • You need to pass 10+2 in order to be eligible for Bca.


  • And in general at least 50 % marks in 12th is required.


††††† Important note :-

In some of the colleges , it's mandatory to have maths in 10+2 in order to be eligible for BCA

For example,

For VIT Vellore, it's mandatory to have Maths /Business Maths in 10+2 to be eligible for BCA. You can check the same at:- https://www.careers360.com/university/vellore-institute-of-technology-vellore/admission

While in most of the colleges,

It is not mandatory to have Maths in 10+2 in order to be eligible for BCA, in these colleges students who have passed 10 + 2 in any stream are eligible for BCA.


For example,

  • For chandigarh university, students who have passed 12th in any stream ( arts, commerce, science etc) from a recognised board  are eligible for BCA. You can check the same at
