    The CLAT 2027 cut-off for NRI categories will be released separately by NLUs after the centralised CLAT counselling is completed. NRI/NRI-sponsored candidates with a valid score in CLAT 2027 are eligible to apply to the respective universities under the CLAT NRI reservation quota. The CLAT NRI cut-off 2027 is expected to be around 1200 for top NLUs. The CLAT 2027 NRI cut-off rank can be as low as 30000+ for some lower-ranked NLUs. Candidates can refer to the CLAT marks vs rank analysis to calculate the required score for the targeted NLU. Note that not all NLUs offer NRI seats.

Each NLU that offers CLAT 2027 seats under NRI/NRI sponsored category, as per the CLAT reservation criteria, will notify the schedule for NRI admission on its respective website. Through the Common Law Admission Test, candidates can gain admission into 5-year LLB programmes of the NLUs. For LLM admissions, candidates have to appear for CLAT PG exam. CLAT 2027 will be conducted on December 6, 2026.
