JasmineUpdated on 08 Dec 2025, 12:23 PM IST

Candidates with CLAT marks between 70 and 75 generally have a rank of around 5800 to 9930. General category students require a higher CLAT 2026 score than this to get into National Law Universities (NLUs). However, candidates from SC, ST, OBC and EWS categories might be admitted to NLUs with this score. Some Tier 1 colleges like NLIU Bhopal, WBNUJS Kolkata, and GNLU Gandhinagar can admit students from certain reserved categories. In addition, some CLAT-affiliated colleges may accept students with low CLAT scores.
