Congratulations on your rank.

On this rank you may get

1. NLU ASSAM

2.HPNLU

3.DBRNLU

While top tier NLU like NLSIU Bangalore, NALSAR Hyderabad, WBNUJS are unlikely

Newer  and mid-tier NLUs like MNLU Nagpur, MPDNLU Jabalpur,  DSNLU vishakapatnam may be possible.

Hello,

For admission to an NLU through the CLAT exam under the OBC category, the following points clarify the type of OBC certificate required:

  1. Central OBC-NCL Certificate :

    • The candidate must possess a Central OBC Non-Creamy Layer (NCL) certificate.
    • This is because the NLUs follow reservations as per the Central Government norms for OBC candidates.
  2. State OBC-NCL Certificate :

    • A State OBC-NCL certificate may not be valid unless the candidate's caste is also listed in the Central OBC list .
    • Check whether your caste is recognized in the Central OBC list for your state.
  3. Validity :

    • Ensure the certificate is valid on the date of admission and covers the financial year of application.
  4. Format :

    • Obtain the certificate in the prescribed format available on the official CLAT website or as per Central Government guidelines.

Hope it helps !

Hello

With a rank of 17,000+ in the GLA University UG entrance exam (assuming it's for the Law (BA LLB) program and seeking admission to a National Law University (NLU), it is unlikely that a candidate with such a rank will be able to gain admission to any of the top NLUs through the Common Law Admission Test (CLAT) for 2025. The cutoff ranks for top NLUs tend to be much lower (generally within the top few thousand ranks), specially for high-demand courses like BA LLB.

There might be a chance in less competitive NLUs or state-specific NLUs, which may have higher cutoffs. It's essential to check individual NLU cutoffs for a more accurate assessment.

Hope this information helps you .

Thank you

Dear

According to the information with a general rank of 41,342 and an OBC rank of 8,463 , you have a good chance of getting admission to IP University for BA LLB. The exact cutoffs can vary each year based on the number of applicants and their scores, but your ranks are quite competitive.

It's best to keep an eye on the official IP University website for the latest cutoffs and admission notifications using law.careers360.com .

Thanks.

Hello aspirant,

If we look at the previous years trends then with a rank of 6,000 it is nearly impossible for you to get admission in NLUs and top private law colleges. But you can definitely get admission in good law colleges.

You can check which college you can get by using our college predictor through the following link:

Thank you

Hello,


With a CLAT score of 20 and an NRI rank of 562, admission to Tamil Nadu National Law University (TNNLU), Trichy, may be challenging as NLU admissions are highly competitive. However, NRI quotas often have fewer applicants, so it is possible depending on seat availability and the cutoff trends for the NRI category. Cutoffs can vary each year based on overall performance, so keep an eye on CLAT counselling updates and consider improving your score for better chances. If you don’t secure TNNLU, other NLUs with NRI seats may also be worth exploring.

Hello, congratulations for getting that rank.

If your CLAT PG 2025 AIR is 1844 and  All India EWS Rank is 141, you could be eligible for admission to a number of National Law Universities (NLUs), including:
  • NLU Jodhpur : The expected cut-off for this NLU is 85+.

  • NLU Bhopal : The expected cut-off for this NLU is 85+.

  • NLU Visakhapatnam : The expected cut-off for the EWS category is 1730–1830.

  • NLU Tripura : General category candidates who score 50–60% may be able to get admission to this lower ranked NLU.


Hello there,

With a score of 67 in CLAT and being a Jammu & Kashmir (JK) resident, your chances of getting admission to Delhi University's (DU) law program depend on various factors, including the cutoffs, your category, and the specific DU campus you're targeting.

DU has its own law entrance exam, the DU LLB entrance exam, and admission is primarily through this. If you’re looking to pursue law in DU, you’ll need to appear for this exam, which is separate from the CLAT.

However, if you are seeking admission to other law schools that accept CLAT scores, your score of 67 may limit your chances for top NLUs, but you may still have opportunities in some other law colleges with slightly lower cutoffs. It's best to apply to multiple colleges that accept CLAT scores and also check DU’s own admission process, as their criteria could be different.

I would recommend you to use CLAT College Predictor Tool by Careers360 to get the list of possible colleges you can get with your rank.



I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries then feel free to share your questions with us we will be happy to assist you.

Thank you and wishing you all the best for your bright future.


No, you need a good valid clat score to get admission to IPU. And also candidates must have passed class 12th with a minimum of 50% aggregate and 45% for reserved categories. If you don't get valid clat score, to get admission to IPU,then you think  of pursuing a degree program that can help you in future to pursue law in the future.

Hello,

Based on your rank of 1848 in the EWS category for CLAT, your chances of getting into a National Law University (NLU) depend on several factors, including the number of seats reserved for the EWS category, the total number of applicants, and the preferences of candidates above you.

  • Lower-Tier NLUs
    You have a chance to secure admission in newer NLUs like:

    • NLU Odisha (Cuttack)
    • NLU Assam (Guwahati)
    • MNLU Aurangabad
    • MNLU Nagpur
    • Himachal Pradesh NLU (Shimla)
  • Mid-Tier NLUs
    If the cutoffs drop slightly compared to the previous years or fewer EWS applicants apply for top-tier NLUs, you might have a shot at:

    • Dr. B.R. Ambedkar NLU, Sonepat (Haryana)
    • HNLU Raipur
  • Top-Tier NLUs
    Admission to the top NLUs (NLSIU Bangalore, NALSAR Hyderabad, WBNUJS Kolkata, NLUD Delhi, etc.) might not be possible at this rank under EWS unless there are significant shifts in cutoffs.

You can also use the CLAT college predictor tool to predict which college you can get based on your score or rank.

Hope it helps !
