To become a registered dietitian, you need to do 3 things:
1. Take the specific set of courses outlined by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics (AND). This can be completed at the undergraduate or graduate level. There are also online options, although I don't know anything about those because I didn't research them myself.
2. Complete the required internships, also outlined by AND. This can be done separately or at the same time as the coursework, depending on your programme (see the researching programs section for more details).
3. Take the RD exam (and pass it).

The eligibility criteria may vary from institute to institute. You would be eligible to apply with 58% marks in some college but you need to justify the gap in the education.

Yes Latika,
You are definitely eligible for the dietician course. As you have already done your graduation from B.Com, now you can surely opt for any other course.

Yes, nutrition & dietitian is a great career option. Post completion of your MBA, you should pursue a Diploma/certificate course in the said area and set the ball rolling on the career front.

Hi Shreeya,
You first decide what you want to study and where. Abroad is a broad term. Different countries have different process and requirements. Based on what you want to be you can look for food and nutrition courses in countries like Canada, Australia and New Zealand. There are many options. Go through college websites and check relevant courses. Based on your percentage in 12th you have better chances of admission in Australia and NZ though. You must take the IELTS to meet the English language requirement for foreign students. You must also write a personal statement and you will require Letters of Recommendation from your teache
