The seat allotment in CLAT depends on the rank, marks, cutoffs for each NLU, and the preference given by the candidates. After the CNLU Patna merit list is released, the Consortium will conduct five rounds of admissions counselling. The candidates listed on the merit list will be required to select either the freeze/ float/ exit option through their login.
The ‘Freeze’ option should be selected if the candidate is allotted a seat in their preferred NLU. Candidates unsatisfied with the allotted NLU can click on the float option to get a higher preference NLU. Candidates who select either of these options must pay the confirmation fee of Rs. 20,000 to reserve a seat, which will be adjusted to the university tuition fee. If a candidate does not want to participate any further in the counselling process, they can choose to ‘Exit’.
