Jindal Global Law School Admissions 2026
Ranked #1 Law School in India & South Asia by QS- World University Rankings | Merit cum means scholarships | Early Admissions (Pahse 2) Deadline: 28th Feb’26
The SLAT 2026 cut-off is the minimum score required for admission to Symbiosis Law Schools (SLS) in Pune, Noida, Hyderabad, and Nagpur. The SLAT cut-offs are determined by factors such as the difficulty of the exam, the total number of applicants, and the available seats at each SLS campus. Generally, SLS Pune has the highest cut-off due to its strong reputation and high demand. Other SLS campuses have slightly lower, yet competitive, cut-offs. The official SLAT results have been announced on January 15, 2026, after which the final cut-offs for the Personal Interaction (PI) rounds will be established.
The Symbiosis Law Admission Test (SLAT) is the gateway to the prestigious five-year integrated law programs (BA LLB, BBA LLB and BCom LLB) offered by Symbiosis International (Deemed University). The cut-off is a crucial benchmark for all candidates. It represents the minimum mark necessary to be shortlisted for the Personal Interaction (PI) admission round. The final SLAT merit list is a composite score of the SLAT marks (scaled to 70) and the PI marks (30). This article provides a detailed, data-driven analysis of the expected SLAT 2026 cut-offs for the four main campuses.
Name of law school | Good attempt | Expected cut off |
SLS Pune | 45+ | 45 - 50 |
SLS Noida | 43+ | 42 - 47 |
SLS Hyderabad | 42+ | 38 - 43 |
40+ | 36 - 41 |
Analysing SLAT past year cut-off data is essential to understanding the evolution of the SLAT examination. Between 2018 and 2019, the SLAT was conducted out of a total of 150 marks (unlike the current 60-mark format). This historical data highlights the high degree of competitiveness, particularly for the general category at the Pune and Noida campuses.

The SLAT cut-off marks are not fixed; they change each year based on several factors. Understanding these factors is essential for students to evaluate their performance in SLAT 2026.
Difficulty level of exam slots: For the 2026 session, the exam was conducted in two phases. Variations in the difficulty of these papers directly impact raw scores.
Total number of applicants: As more students register for the fixed number of seats (1,380 seats across all campuses), the minimum marks required to secure a shortlist spot rise accordingly.
Total seats available: The SLAT seat matrix (e.g., SLS Pune has 600 seats, while Hyderabad and Nagpur have 240 each) directly impacts the cut-off. Fewer seats for a highly preferred campus mean higher cut-off marks.
Campus ranking and reputation: Historically, SLS Pune attracts top talent due to its reputation and superior placement records, consistently leading to the highest cut-off bar (often 48+ marks). Newer campuses like Nagpur see lower demand, resulting in more accessible scores.
No negative marking policy: The SLAT 2026 structure does not penalise students for incorrect answers. This encourages candidates to attempt all 60 questions. This leads to higher average scores than in exams with negative marking.
