Hello

Yes you can apply but at the time of ssb interview you have to submit your provisional certificate of graduation.  So if you can then you are Eligible.

And for different academic they have different educational qualifications criteria:

For IMA-graduation from any recognised university

For naval (INA)- an engineering degree is required from any recognised university.

For air force -an engineering degree or graduation from any recognised university but must taken physics amd mathematics in 12th.

Good Luck
