    Hello,
    According to the UGC NET exam guidelines, candidates who have completed Masters' degree with minimum 55% aggregate marks from any UGC approved university or are in the qualifying year of post-graduation can apply for the NET exam. So, if you are in the final year of post-graduation, you can surely appear for the exam. If you want to apply for JRF NET then your age must not exceed than 28 years.

    Hello Siddhant,
    You are definitely eligible to appear in the UGC NET Exam. UGC Board allows the students completed Masters from private and recognized Universities to appear in the UGC NET Exam. If you have completed Bachelors and Masters in Private from a recognized University like IGNOU you are definitely eligible to appear in the UGC NET-https://examspotdotblog.wordpress.com/2018/12/08/ugc-net-exam-preparation-books-and-study-material/ Exam. The candidates completed Masters in any subject with at-least 55% marks is eligible to appear in the UGC NET.
