Hi Geeta,Though any Graduate is eligible for pursuing a course in Advertisement.
But my question to you is Why do you wish to pursue advertisement now???
Please note that being a Commerce graduate, you have completely no background of media or creativity.
Though both can be developed, but building a base at this stage gets difficult.Please note that at the PG level, you would meet Graduates who are media qualified and you may face hassles to establish yourself.But if you are passionate and hardworking then there is no looking back.
At the same time, be aware that Advertisement or Media field takes longer to settle than just any Graduate and especially with a commerce background.
So make a calculative decision.
Wish you good luckkk...
