Hi Prakash,

National law Universities are prestigious universities which opens many gates for their students. Getting in an NLU is an achievement in itself. Since, they are such high ranked law schools, their cutoffs are also expected to go high.

This year's 1st and 2nd merit lists have been released, but with these marks you don't have much of a chance of getting in NLU. If you really wish to get in NLU then you should give CLAT next year and score high enough to get in NLU. Otherwise you can check out other colleges except NLUs.

If you want to check out the 1st and 2nd merit list. And also the previous years cutoff trends, you can click on the link below:-

Hope this helps

All the best!

Hello Pankaj

The cut off for admission in any of the National Law Universities through CLAT in the previous year was a rank in the range of 1600 for the general category. Considering that your rank is 1767, you do not seem to have any chances for any of the National LawUniversities if you belong to the general category. Usually there are vacancies in the lower NLUs as people leave their seats for other colleges. You do have have a fair chance then. But vacancies are very uncertain and you might/ might not have a chance. Also, if you have other optiona various non NLU law colleges and even private colleges are better than the lower tier NLUs. So you can prefer joining those instead of waiting for vacancies. As far as the last allotment lists are concerned your chances aren't much.
Other than colleges with their own entrances, There are various Private Colleges that accept CLAT scores other than the National Law Universities.
Jindal Global Law School, Sonepat
Kirit P. Mehta School of Law, Mumbai
NIRMA UNIVERSITY, Ahmedabad
You might even have a chance in IP University Delhi  if you had applied there
Best of luck

HELLO SHALINI,

As you have asked that how to take admission against the vacant seats in any nlu so here below is the procedure by which you can take admission and I think you should also contact to the nlu authorities  or any customer care.

The process of CLAT 2018 which was held on May 13, 2018 for admissions to Law programs at 19 National Law Universities across the country, comes to final closure. However, despite three lists notified by CLAT this year, many National Law Universities are struggling to fill their seats, including NLUs like RMLNLU, NLUO, HNLU etc.

The official process of CLAT comes to close and now it is onto the respective National Law Universities, to notify and fill the vacant seats, if any. This year 13 National Law Universities have notified for vacant seats after the closure of admission process by CLAT. The students can apply online through the respective websites of the NLUs, in case they meet the eligibility conditions as laid down by the respective NLU for applying against the vacant seats.

The admission against vacant seats is on the basis of ranks and if shown interest through relevant channel before the last date as applicable.

Candidates willing to take admissions in the current academic season must ensure to apply before the deadline. It is advised that students check the rank eligibility before applying to any National Law University before showing the interest in admission.

Thanks


Hello Roushni,

As per the previous year cutoff trends, the cutoff rank for a State Backward Classes candidate was ranging from 4146 to 4694 for B.A. LLB.

For LLM, the cutoff ranks ranged from 847 to 1653. 

It seems as if you have very slim to no chances of getting admission in NUSRL Ranchi. However, don't lose hope as cutoffs don't remain the same every year. Wait patiently for the rounds but keep a lookout for other institutes as well to keep your options open.

All the Best!

1. GNLU,

Hello Satendra rajput,

First of all congrats for securing 3k rank in NLU 2019 . As per my knowledge students below 1k ranks are eligible for almost all top NLU  . So you have very less chance of securing good course in 2nd round of counselling else last round counselling is all yours .

As you are from OBC then As per previous year cutoff and trends you will definitely get assured seat in tier 2 NLUs Though it will tough for getting seat in top ones still you have hope and you have to wait till last round for getting top colleges .

All the best:)

College Infrastructure

The facilities provided in the academic block are sub par in an otherwise beautiful campus which is ever so peaceful. The football field was designed for drinking and making out. Yeah, it was pretty big and lively yet quiet at the same time.

Verified Review

College Infrastructure

Yes, the college has all the necessary infrastructure and facilities required. There are a lot of sports facilities available. The acad block is well maintained and the classrooms are also very spacious. The hostels are divided into various buildings. The best thing about NLUJ hostels is the single occupancy system of the hostel rooms. From the very first year onwards, a person is allotted a single room which remains same for throughout one's college life i.e., for 5 years.

NLUJ provides for overall and holistic development.

Verified Review

College Infrastructure

NLUJ has a sprwlawling 55 acre campus that caters all your needs. There are separate hostels for boys and girls with washroom and water coolers on every floor. The mess is undoubtedly the best amongst all NLUs, giving you the option of more than 100 dishes. The drawback of this is that you have to 'Buy' your food daily as the fee doesn't include the mess charges. The classrooms are spacious and air conditioned with good seating. The Library here is amazing having all resources required.
