Hello Rajat,
The first and foremost eligibility criteria in most of the US Universities is the 16 years education with a graduate degree. Since you are a BCA graduate, which is a 3 years program, You would have completed only 15 years education in India.
However, few Universities do accept 15 years education. I suggest you to shortlist the universities based on your profile and check for the minimum eligibility criteria and then apply for the universities.
All the best.
