No NLU Seat after CLAT 2025? Top Five alternatives you must consider
With all the CLAT 2025 counselling rounds now concluded, thousands of students still remain unallotted, unable to secure a seat at any NLU. This is due to its highly competitive cut-off and limited CLAT seat intake compared to the vast number of CLAT 2025 aspirants. Relying only on a single entrance exam is quite risky, as it consumes the time and mental energy of a candidate. While this outcome may be quite disappointing, it is important to note that NLUs are not the only path to a successful legal career. It is better to have a backup plan and have alternative exams in the queue if things don’t work out the way planned.
For students who were unable to secure a seat at CLAT-participating NLUs, several other alternatives remain available, including Jindal Global Law School via LNAT UK, Delhi University, IPU Delhi, and Nirma University, which accept CLAT scores. Additionally, top institutions in Maharashtra with high seat intake, like GLC Mumbai and ILS Pune, through MH CET Law are great options.
