If you don't have a mathematics background, your eligibility for an Economics Honours program will depend on the admission criteria of the university. Some universities require mathematics in 10+2, while others may offer exemptions or alternatives. It's best to check the specific requirements of your preferred institutions. If math is compulsory, you might need to take a bridge course or consider other programs that suit your academic qualifications.

Yes, you can pursue a B.A. (Hons.) in Economics, but it depends on the university's admission criteria. Many universities require Mathematics as a compulsory subject in 10+2, while some allow non-maths students as well.

  • Bangalore University
  • Mumbai University
  • Christ University
  • Amity University
  • IGNOU (Distance Learning)
  • These universities do not strictly require Mathematics in 12th but may have an entrance exam.

Hello,

Yes, as a non-math background student, you may still be eligible for an Economics (Honours) degree, depending on the specific college or university requirements. Here's what you should consider:

1. Eligibility Criteria Varies by University

Some universities require mathematics as a subject in 10+2 for admission to Economics (Honours), as the course often involves quantitative methods and statistics.

Others may not have strict math requirements or may offer a foundation course in mathematics to help non-math students.
