The eligibility criteria for the BCA program at Puran Murti Vidyapeeth for the 2026-27 session are designed to be inclusive, reflecting the modern reality that computer science is a multidisciplinary field. By opening the doors to students from science, commerce and arts streams, the institution acknowledges that diverse perspectives - from logical scientific reasoning to creative artistic design - are essential for innovation. This "Stream-Neutral" policy ensures that your past subject choices in Class 12 do not limit your future potential in the high-growth software industry.
To ensure a strong academic foundation, the institution requires a minimum aggregate of 50% marks in the qualifying Class 12 examination from any recognized board, such as CBSE, ICSE, or BSEB. This benchmark is used to gauge a student's commitment and readiness for the rigorous "Practical-First" modules that define the BCA curriculum. The aggregate is typically calculated based on the top four or five subjects, providing a holistic view of the student's academic performance throughout their final school year.
In alignment with national educational standards and the goal of social equity, a 5% relaxation is provided for students belonging to reserved categories. This means that candidates from SC, ST, or other specifically recognized groups are eligible for admission with a minimum aggregate of 45%. This provision is a vital component of the university’s mission to provide premium technical education to a broad demographic, ensuring that talented students from all economic and social backgrounds can access career-changing opportunities.
The flexibility of the "Any Stream" policy is particularly advantageous for students looking to pivot into technology from non-traditional backgrounds. For instance, a student with an arts background might excel in User Experience (UX) design, while a commerce student might find a natural fit in fintech development. Because Puran Murti Vidyapeeth provides foundation modules to teach coding from scratch, the entry-level marks act more as a measure of discipline than a reflection of prior technical knowledge, allowing a diverse 2026 batch to thrive in the same high-tech software labs.
Finally, for students who are currently appearing for their final exams in 2026, the provisional admission route remains the primary gateway. You can begin your application using your Class 12 Admit Card, allowing you to secure your seat before the final result declaration. However, the final "Confirmed" status is contingent upon the submission of your marksheet during the counseling phase, proving you have met the 50% (or 45%) threshold. This structured process ensures that every student entering the Sonepat campus is academically prepared to pursue placements at global MNCs like Amazon, TCS and Wipro.
