    The duration of training is one year except for the Direct Entry Scheme, for which it is one and a half years. Graduates opting for Direct Entry (between 19-24 age group) are required to qualify Combined Defence Service Examination conducted by the UPSC and the final selection is done through the Services Selection Boards. Army cadets from NDA and ACC join after completing three year degree course at respective training establishments. The technical graduates, who are engineering graduates/PG candidates, are not required to write a written examination but need to be selected by respective SSBs. On successful completion of training at IMA, all entrants receive Commissioned rank of Lieutenant. However, UES and TGC (with BE) entries get two years ante date seniority over their course mates. This is to compensate for the extra time they spend to earn the Engineering Degree before commissioning. With the ante date seniority, opportunities widen for faster promotions in addition to pay benefits.
    Candidates selected for 10+2 Technical Entry Scheme (TES) are inducted for one years' basic military training at IMA. This is followed by a four years' degree course in Engineering from College of Military Engineering (CME) Pune or Military College of Telecommunication Engineering (MCTE) or Military College of Electronics and Mechanical Engineering (MCEME) Secunderabad at Government expense. However, on completion of three years of training they return to the IMA for receiving the commission in the rank of a Lieutenant. Thereafter they return to their technical institutions as Lieutenant to complete fourth year of their degree course.
