    A CLAT rank of 15000 is considered a low rank that is likely to diminish a candidate’s chances of getting into premier NLUs such as NLSIU Bengaluru and NALSAR Hyderabad. The NLU admissions chances for reserved categories are limited to tier 2 and 3 NLUs with a CLAT rank of 15000 while General and EWS candidates will have almost no chance of admission with this rank unless it permits under the domicile category. In this article, get the list of NLUs into which one can gain admission with a 15000 rank in CLAT.
