Ans. Mathematics is not listed as a strict mandatory requirement for BCA admission at BSA Mathura, and students from Arts, Commerce, and Science streams are eligible provided they meet the 45 percent aggregate threshold in Class 12. However, the BCA curriculum includes mathematical topics such as discrete mathematics and numerical methods, so students with a Mathematics background in Class 12 tend to adapt to the programme more easily. Interested candidates should confirm subject requirements directly with the admissions office.
