Important Points to Remember About SSC CGL Eligibility
Here are some important information about SSC CGL eligibility:
- For the SSC CGL 2022 exam, there is no minimum percentage requirement; applicants with clear and simple graduation passing certificates are welcome.
- Candidates who are currently enrolled in their last year of college are also eligible for the SSC CGL, provided they submit their passing certificate and mark sheet by the new deadline by the SSC board.
- Additionally, candidates should be informed that a distance education board must recognise a degree achieved through an open university or distance learning (DEB). Institutions recognised by the DEB include the Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU), the Bharati Vidyapeeth in Pune (also deemed to be a university), the Manipal Academy of Higher Education in Manipal, etc.
