    No! it is not possible to study honours in Economics without having Mathematics in class 12th. it is mandatory to have economics and mathematics in class 12 to be eligible to get admission in Economics Honours. if you only want bachelor's degree like BA then you can go ahead but you have to be strong in Mathematics, this course involves with many maths topics like; statistics and all. and for major in Economics Hons you can not get this course without maths.

    Yes, humanities students can do Economics Hons if they have Maths as an additional optional subject in their class 12th boards provided they studied maths as one of their subjects in class 11th and 12th.

    But do look into the prerequisites of the college you are going to apply because different colleges have different criteria for the admission.

Absolutely! Having a humanities background is no barrier to pursuing Fine Arts at Chandigarh University.

The programme welcomes students from all streams, including humanities, as long as they meet the minimum requirement of 50% marks in their 12th exams. Many humanities students find the programme a natural extension of their academic interests, as the curriculum often connects with cultural, historical, and social themes. For example, a student who studied history might bring unique perspectives into courses like painting or applied arts.

The university values creativity and passion over specific subjects studied in school.
