Articleship and UPSC

Hey Amaira!
Yes, you can definitely appear for the UPSC Civil Services Exam (CSE) while doing your CA articleship. There’s no restriction on that.

But here are a couple of things to keep in mind:

• Time Management: Articleship can be demanding, so balancing UPSC preparation alongside might be challenging but doable with good planning.

• Eligibility: Just make sure you meet the UPSC age and educational criteria. Being a CA student fits well under the education qualification.

• Leave for Exams: You can apply for leave from your articleship during exam days, usually, firms are supportive for such important exams.
