      It will matter as 1-year isn’t enough time to learn a language like Japanese for job prospects. It takes a few years to achieve the upper-intermediate or advanced level. So you need some long-term course.

      There is no direct admission to MA in foreign languages for external students. But, you are eligible to give the entrance test they might conduct in mid-2022. You can track their admission timeline, and the fee is around 15 to 20 thousand per semester.

      Not necessarily. But admission is based on the entrance test, and to crack the exam, you need knowledge similar to BA in the same language. After studying the particular language for 2-3 years, you can appear for the entrance exam.

      Due to the spread of COVID-19, everything has been delayed. There is also a possibility that admission will be based on 12th marks, and not on entrance tests. Difficult to say. Wait for the university announcement or contact them.

    He has registered for the entrance exam for the JNU UG program. He is awaiting admission announcements from Doon University and Tilak Maharashtra Vidyalaya. Meanwhile, can you name the universities/colleges (public/private) that take direct admission in BA Japanese based on CBSE 12th standard marks? Thanks in advance for your response.

      1) Yes. Without prior knowledge in Spanish (equivalent to BA/Advanced Diploma in Spanish or DELE B2), you have to repeat the BA course. 2) While 45% of seats are reserved for SC/ST from Uttarakhand, all applicants are required to appear in the entrance test. Moreover, since your result will be declared in Oct. Thus, the last date for submitting the qualifying exam result may not last by then. You can contact the admission department for the same.
