Ranking 21000 in clat, which law college likely to get in LLB
Hello,
With a Common Law Admission Test (CLAT) rank of 21,000, your chances of securing admission into the top-tier National Law Universities (NLUs) are slim, as their cutoff ranks typically fall below 10,000 for the unreserved category. However, based on previous years' NLU's cutoffs , you might have chances at the following types of institutions:
1. Lower rank NLUs :
-
If you belong to a reserved category (SC/ST/OBC/EWS), you might still secure admission in lower-ranked NLUs such as:
- HNLU, Raipur
- DSNLU, Visakhapatnam
- TNNLU, Tiruchirappalli
- MNLU campuses (Mumbai, Aurangabad, Nagpur)
- These colleges may accept higher ranks for candidates under specific reservation categories or domiciles.
2. Private Law colleges accepting CLAT scores :
Many private institutions also accept CLAT scores and are good alternatives:
- UPES, Dehradun
- NMIMS School of Law, Mumbai
- Jindal Global Law School, Sonipat (Note: JGLS also conducts its own admission test, LSAT-India, but may consider CLAT scores as part of their criteria.)
- Amity Law School
- ICFAI Law School
- Alliance School of Law, Bengaluru
3. State Law colleges participating in CLAT :
Some state law colleges or universities also admit students through CLAT. Examples:
- Nirma University, Ahmedabad
- Maharashtra State Law Universities under the CET model (if they use CLAT ranks in some seats)
- Punjab University Regional Centers (depending on their quotas).
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 !
Hello Kuldeep,
With a CLAT 2025 rank of 21,000 , admission into National Law Universities (NLUs) is unlikely as the cutoff ranks for NLUs, even for reserved categories, generally close much earlier. However, several private law colleges and universities accept CLAT scores and may offer you admission. Some of these colleges include:
-
UPES Dehradun
Known for specialized law courses in energy, corporate, and technology law.
-
NMIMS School of Law, Mumbai
Offers good placement opportunities and infrastructure.
-
MIT World Peace University, Pune
Offers modern legal education with good campus facilities.
-
Alliance University, Bangalore
Recognized for its legal programs and vibrant campus life.
-
Christ University, Bangalore (if eligible through other criteria)
May consider CLAT scores in combination with its internal processes.
Additionally, private universities like
Amity Law School
,
ICFAI Law School
, and
Sharda University
also accept students with CLAT scores at this rank. Ensure you confirm individual college admission criteria and deadlines, as some might also have alternate pathways for admission.
