The CLAT expected cut-off 2025 will be different for each of the 24 participating NLUs. Top-ranked NLUs such as NLSIU Bengaluru and NALSAR Hyderabad are often the first choice for any CLAT aspirant, and the expected CLAT 2025 cut-off will be higher for such NLUs. The CLAT 2025 cut-off gradually decreases as one moves to NLUs lower down the order. In the bottom-ranked NLUs such as NLU Tripura, many seats are often left vacant even after several rounds of counselling.
Careers360 launched the CLAT 2025 college predictor, a free tool which will help candidates to know the NLUs and courses in which they have chances of admission based on the rank in CLAT 2025. The tool uses details such as rank, state, gender, seat type, and category, entered by the candidates to provide the list of NLU and course recommendations.
