IMA Eligibility for Girls

Hey there! Myself Rakhi and I want to join Indian military Army. Would you please provide me eligibility to join IMA.

[Kiran Chandar]

Sorry to say Rakhi, but you are not eligible for IMA because girls are not allowed in IMA, only boy can get admission and don’t panic because if you want to Join defense then you should apply for OTA (Officers’ Training Academy) or Join Defense Through UES (University Entry Scheme).

Here I am providing Eligibility For Defense:

For Female only:

• Candidate must have Graduate degree course in any discipline from Recognized university.
• Your age must be between 19 to 25.

You have another option to join defense and that option is you can Join Defense through Direct Entry Scheme, So If you have achieved your engineering, you can join the Technical Branch through the Direct Entry Scheme.


Here I am providing Eligibility For Defense Direct Entry Scheme:

For Female only:

Candidate must have:
• completed your Engineering Gradate degree course and
• your age should between 18 to 28 years.

All The Very Best !!!
