SEBA questions parents ask.
What is SEBA in PUC?
SEBA is a Karnataka PU commerce combination of Statistics, Economics, Business Studies and Accountancy, with English and a second language.
SEBA or CEBA: which should my child choose?
The difference is one subject. SEBA has Statistics, which suits a student who likes data and numbers. CEBA has Computer Science, which suits a student who likes computers. Economics, Business Studies and Accountancy are common to both.
Does SEBA have Maths?
No. SEBA has no Basic Maths subject. Statistics is its numbers subject. A student who wants Basic Maths should look at MSBA.
Can a SEBA student become a CA?
Yes. ICAI asks for a Class 12 pass for the Foundation course and does not name a stream.
Does SEBA suit a student who is not strong in Maths?
Often, yes, because Maths is not a subject. Statistics still involves numbers, so talk to the subject teacher at the visit.
What are the fees for SEBA?
Please speak to the admissions counsellor, who will go through the 2027-28 fees for SEBA with you.
