The Common Law Admission Test (CLAT) is a national-level entrance test for admittance to India’s 21 prominent National Law Universities as well as other private universities. Those who pass the CLAT can apply for admission to 3-year/5-year Incorporated LLB and LLM programs.

The CLAT exam is administered once a year by the National Law University (NLU) among the CLAT Panel’s 21 members. CLAT scores are used for enrollment and hiring by private international law colleges across the country and Public Sector Undertakings.

Until 2018, CLAT was administered by NLUs on a rotating basis. However, beginning in 2019, the CLAT will be administered by a permanent body called the “Consortium of NLUs,” which is made up of NLUs. The organization’s headquarters is in NLSIU Bangalore.

The CLAT curriculum covers various subject areas to assess candidates’ English proficiency, general knowledge of static GK, basic computation, thinking skills in logical reasoning, and legal competence. Except for the legal aptitude section, most candidates are familiar with the majority of the sections. This section assesses the candidate’s knowledge of the law, research aptitude, and problem-solving abilities.

Candidates who have successfully completed their CLAT application forms must go to the official website to obtain their admit card. Candidates can access their admit cards/hall tickets by logging into their accounts. Applicants should be aware that they will not be permitted to sit for the CLAT exam unless they have a valid CLAT admit card and a photo ID card for confirmation.
