With a 3-year BA, you can now join a US varsity
Universities in the US have started accepting three-year bachelors degrees for admission to their graduate schools, a move that straightaway opens the doors of higher studies in American varsities to a massive Indian pool of three-year BA, BCom, BSc degree holders.
Until now, the US accepted students in its graduate schools only after they had completed 16 years of formal education (12 plus 4). This meant that Indian students were required to study for another year after their graduation before they could sit for GRE or GMAT for entry into US universities.
The US acceptance of 15 years of formal education follows a European decision to harmonise the degree structure under the Bologna Process to award a bachelors degree in three years, rather than four thats been the norm in US.
