Dear aspirant. Hope you are doing good. I would like to tell you that National Law University is considered to be one of the best university in India to study Law. It is a very challenging job to get a seat there. If you are the lucky one, don't give a second thought. You should aim for top NLU, but still if you get the chance to be in any of the NLU, don't drop it. The placements are top notch of NLU's. It is a brad that every corporate firm looks for since the students who pass from these colleges are highly trained and knowledgable. I hope you found this answer helpful. Good luck.

Good Luck!

Dear Sara, even before things move to admission process, for you to be eligible for CLAT, you should have secured a minimum aggregate of 45%. It is 45% for General and OBC Categories and its 40% for Reserved Categories. And unfortunately, the aggregate cannot be rounded off to the nearest digit. You have to earn it rightfully if we may say so. You have to appear for improvement exams to secure the required aggregate. It is tough to sit for improvement exams just for few decimals but unfortunately that is the only way you can be eligible for CLAT and seek admission even if it is a private institution.

Hello,

At the time of the form filling of CLAT, you'll have options in which universities you prefer to take admission, you just need to fill that in the order of preference and this will be among 21 national law universities that takes part in admission through CLAT. However, if you want to take admission in private universities that accept CLAT scores, you have to apply separately for this one.

Now, if you wish to apply for NLU, Delhi then you need to fill a separate form for its entrance exam and that's AILET as NLU, Delhi conducts its own entrance test.Admission to NLU, Delhi is not based on CLAT scores but AILET scores.

Hello Karthik, NLU would be a better choice than Jindal law school because students in NLUs are selected through CLAT which is a very tough test to clear. So, NLU students would be much more smarter than Jindal Law school students because they would be studying in a University in which all of the students would have taken admission through the national level CLAT exam. Jindal Law school might be better than some of the low ranked and new NLUs but overall you should select NLU if you have a choice.
