Hello

Yes, scholarships are available for CLAT merit holders. Many law schools, including some top institutions, offer financial assistance based on CLAT scores. For example, National Law Universities (NLUs) often offer merit-cum-means scholarships to students who excel in the exam. Additionally, some private organizations and law firms also offer scholarships to top CLAT scorers. The amount and criteria for these scholarships vary, but they usually cover tuition fees or provide financial support for study materials and other expenses.

Currently, CLAT is conducted in various cities across India, but as of now, there are no official test centers outside India, including in the UAE. Students residing abroad typically need to travel to India to appear for the exam. However, rules and centers may change in future, so I suggest keeping an eye on the official CLAT Consortium website, especially when the 2026 notification is released. If traveling to India is challenging, you can plan your trip in advance around the exam date. Also, for NRI or NRI-sponsored seats in Indian law colleges, some universities may have a different selection process that doesn’t require CLAT, so you can explore those options too.

Thank you,

Yes, MSc entrance exams for many universities have either started or been conducted. For example, the AIIMS MSc entrance exam was held in June 2025, and results are already out. University-level PG entrance tests like PGAT by Allahabad University also took place in June. For IIT JAM 2026, which is widely accepted for MSc admissions in IITs and other top institutes, the registration will start in September 2025. So depending on the university or institute you are targeting, entrance exams may be ongoing or upcoming. It is best to regularly check the official websites of the institutions you are applying to.

Hello Vaishali

1. UPES Dehradun
2. ICFAI Law School, Hyderabad
3. Alliance University, Bangalore
4. VIT School of Law
5. Amity Law School, Noida

Hi dear candidate,

Your rank of 4032 in CLAT exam with EWS appears to be insufficient for admission in IP University colleges as the category wise cut off for IPU colleges is lower than your rank at least for the top tier colleges like VIPS and MAIMS.

The majority of seats are reserved for students with Delhi domicile in IPU colleges and if you belong to outside Delhi then, it's slightly difficult.

However, some colleges like Trinity (TIIPS) in Dwarka accepted admissions for Law at higher rank of around 8,000 so you might also have a chance there.

Otherwise, you can find top Law colleges in Delhi NCR at our official website:

Hello Akanksha!

That’s a very relevant question, especially for students who want quality education without high costs. Some platforms, including this one , do offer limited free CLAT preparation material like:Sample question papers,study plans or exam pattern insights.

For preparation, make a timetable and study each section for at least 1 hour daily. Focus on current affairs too.

You can check this page for more information about CLAT preparation in detail;

Thanks for asking and all the best!

Firstly, having an ST rank of 593 means you're in the top 600 among ST candidates, but there’s more to how CLAT admission works. The total number of seats for ST category across all NLUs is limited, often just around 300–400. And even though your category rank is 593, it’s possible that other candidates ahead of you filled up most of the seats in earlier rounds.

Also, your All India Rank (AIR) of 34,347 plays a role because some NLUs consider both AIR and category rank during seat allocation. Most ST category cutoffs in popular NLUs tend to fall around AIR 12,000–20,000, depending on how competitive that year is and how many applicants fill seats in the early rounds. So, if your AIR is outside that range, it's quite likely you were just beyond the last cutoff in round-wise seat distribution.

The best move now is to look out for mop-up or spot rounds, where unfilled or withdrawn seats are re-offered. Also, many private universities like UPES, Nirma, or Bennett accept CLAT scores and reserve seats for ST category students.

All the best!
