    Hello Nishant
    It depends upon the criteria of college/ university. Some of the private institutes ask for 45% - 50% while some demands 50% -60% but the government universities have specific criteria they may ask for 50%-60 % or maybe more, apart from this, they conduct entrance exam for Master's programme.
    Thank you.

So, try to gather the information of all the colleges and if you are going for government institutes start preparing for entrance exams.

    Hi Nishant,
    The basic eligibility for admission to MA in Mass Communication is a Bachelor's degree in any stream of minimum 3 years duration. It is not compulsory to have a Bachelor degree in Journalism or Mass communication but it certainly gives an edge.
    There is no restriction with respect to stream of education in graduation. However, certain universities do not accept application from students who belong to Engineering or Medical streams.
