The following are the eligibility criteria for those who aspire to take up CAT 2013
The candidate must hold a Bachelor’s Degree,
with at least 50% marks or equivalent CGPA [45% in case of the candidates
belonging to Scheduled Caste (SC), Scheduled Tribe (ST) and Differently Abled

awarded by any of the Universities incorporated by an act of the central or
state legislature in India or other educational institutions established by an
act of Parliament or declared to be deemed as a University under Section 3 of
the UGC Act, 1956, or possess an equivalent qualification recognized by the
Ministry of HRD, Government of India. The percentage of marks obtained by the
candidate in the bachelor’s degree would be calculated based on the practice
followed by the university/institution from where the candidate has obtained
the degree. In case the candidates are awarded grades/CGPA instead of marks,
the conversion of grades/CGPA to percentage of marks would be based on the
procedure certified by the university/ institution from where they have
obtained the bachelor’s degree.
In case the university/ institution does not have any scheme for converting CGPA into equivalent marks, the equivalence would be established by dividing the candidate’s CGPA by the maximum possible CGPA and multiplying the result with 100. Candidates appearing for the final year of bachelor’s degree/equivalent qualification examination and those who have completed degree requirements and are awaiting results can also apply. If selected, such candidates will be allowed to join the program provisionally, only if he/she submits a certificate latest by June 30, 2014 from the Principal/Registrar of his/her College/Institute (issued on or before June 30, 2014) stating that the candidate has completed all the requirements for obtaining the bachelor’s degree/equivalent qualification on the date of the issue of the certificate.
