For the Bachelor of Arts (BA) in History at Kerala University, the application process requires completion of Higher Secondary Education, with admissions based largely on 12th-grade marks. General category students typically need a minimum of 80% in their 12th exams to be competitive, although some reviews suggest the requirement could be around 70%, emphasizing a strong academic record is critical. SC/ST candidates benefit from reservation policies, potentially easing the percentage requirement slightly.

The application is available online on the university's official website, and the process is user-friendly, including simple online submission and subsequent allotment based on marks. Being a government college, Kerala University does not offer a management quota; all admissions are merit-based on prior performance in higher secondary exams. With over 800 new admissions annually, the institution experiences high demand and maintains a transparent and straightforward admissions process. An admission fee of INR 2000 is required upon acceptance, and original higher secondary certificates must be submitted.

The timeline generally involves applying online and awaiting allotment notifications, typically occurring about two weeks after initial application submission. This rigorous emphasis on merit ensures only academically strong candidates are admitted to the BA History program.

University College the heart of Trivandrum

There is no entrance exam or related such things for the exsmination. We could simply get admission through Kerala Unuversity allotment process. I selected the college because this was 1st rank in KIRF and 26th rank in NIRF when i applied. As by the number of famous aluminies and the history of college i thought this was one of the historic college which was the pure British Victorian Architecture. So i opt this as better choice.
