Hello aspirant,

Yes you can definitely join in NCC in you post graduation. To join NCC, you must be enrolled in a postgraduate course. NCC units are designed to be affiliated with educational institutions, and you cannot be a part of one unless you are a student.

age limit for a student to join NCC :

For JD/JW Cadets : 12 -18.5 Years

For SD/SW Cadets : Upto 26 years of age.


duration of the NCC Programme as an NCC Cadet :

For JD/JW Cadets: Two Years.

For SD/SW Cadets: Three Years with one year extension.

Thank you

Hope this information helps you.

Hello,

You can, indeed. You must enroll in a postgraduate course if you want to join NCC since you need to be a registered college student.

A student must be between the ages of 13 and 24 to join NCC. After graduating, you can become a member of NCC if you enroll in a college for a conventional or even a distance learning course. Many of my NCC friends who were Masters students supported my decision, and they were glad I did. Only after completing the required 3 years will you receive the NCC's C certificate, which is useful for employment and at some educational institutions.

Now, whether you can extend your NCC stay for a further three years until you become 24 years old depends on your age at the time your graduation was completed. If not for three years, you can complete NCC in two years and earn a B certificate in addition to gaining a lot of experience on this new path.

I'll advise you to enlist in NCC so you can have a taste of life in the military. If you pursue NCC with sincerity, it will teach in you many qualities that make an officer.

Thank You
