**Eligibility for Four-Year Bachelor's Degree Holders:**
Students with a four-year undergraduate degree or those in their final year can now also take the National Eligibility Test (NET). Such candidates are permitted to appear in the subject of their post-graduation studies, provided they have a minimum of 75% marks or equivalent grade in their undergraduate program. Previously, NET aspirants needed a postgraduate degree with a minimum of 55% marks to be eligible.
