    CLAT 2025 Revised Result: Consortium Will Allow Fresh NLU Preference Submissions? Check Details Here

    Sumeet SudarshanUpdated on 25 Apr 2025, 11:29 AM IST

    The Delhi HC ordered the Consortium of NLUs to publish the revised result in the CLAT 2025 UG judgement issued on April 23, 2025. The HC order will cause a significant change in candidates final score in the CLAT 2025 revised result. This change in the result will also alter a candidate’s admission chances at different NLUs. A major question confronting the candidates is whether the consortium will allow them to change their NLU preference list. Read on to get details about what is likely to happen with the candidate’s NLU preferences.

    Why is the NLU Preference List Important?

    Submitting the NLU preference list is an essential part of the CLAT 2025 admission process. A candidate can secure admission at only those NLUs which are part of their preferences. A minimum of 15 universities must be provided in the NLU preferences. There is no maximum limit.

    In CLAT 2025, candidates were required to submit their NLU preferences at the time of CLAT counselling registration.

    How the Score Changes in CLAT 2025 Revised Result?

    A detailed breakdown of revised result shows that a candidate's score in the Common Law Admission Test will fluctuate widely in the best case and the worst case scenario. The Delhi HC has ordered revision in the answers to 4 questions. Consequently, a candidate’s score can increase by 4 marks or decrease by up to 2.25 marks which will cause a huge shift in the candidate’s rank in the CLAT merit list.

    Why will the Consortium of NLUs Allow Fresh NLU Preferences?

    In CLAT 2025 candidates got the opportunity to submit their NLU preferences after the result was declared. Candidates had the benefit of submitting the list as per their CLAT 2025 score to maximise their chances of admission.

    As seen in the table above, there is likely to be a huge gap between a candidate’s old CLAT score and the revised score that will affect their NLU chances. The Consortium of NLUs has accepted the Delhi HC verdict and agreed to change the result. This necessitates that candidates must be allowed to submit fresh NLU preferences that are in alignment with the result and provide all the candidates a fair chance of admission at an NLU they deserve.

    How to Submit NLU Preferences?

    Candidates can submit the NLU preference list in the order of preference through their login. A minimum of 15 preferences must be submitted. There is no maximum limit. Given below are the steps to provide the NLU preferences -

    • Login to CLAT 2025 account

    • Click on the counselling registration option.

    • Click on Update preferences

    • Select the NLUs in the order of preference

    • Submit the preferences

    Hey there,

    If you mean CLAT eligibility for admission to 5-year LLB courses, there is no fixed CLAT score/rank that guarantees eligibility. You must first meet the basic Class 12 eligibility criteria, and admission is based on your CLAT rank, category, preferences, and counselling cut-offs.

    For NLUs, a better rank
