The Common Law Admission Test (CLAT) is a national-level entrance exam for students seeking admission to undergraduate and postgraduate law programs at 18 National Law Universities (NLUs) in India. It is conducted on a rotational basis by these universities to shortlist candidates based on merit and preference. CLAT provides a single-window opportunity for aspirants to secure admission to top law institutions across the country, ensuring transparency and fairness in the selection process.

CLAT is open to Indian nationals who have completed Class 12 for undergraduate programs or hold a bachelor's degree in law for postgraduate programs. There are no specific income or marks criteria; eligibility depends on qualifying the exam and meeting the admission standards set by individual NLUs. Reserved categories such as SC, ST, OBC, EWS, PwD, and DNT may avail relaxation as per government norms.

Candidates must register online through the official CLAT portal by filling in personal, academic, and contact details. Upload required documents such as photographs, signatures, and certificates as specified. Pay the application fee through available online modes. After submission, download and retain a copy of the confirmation page for future reference.
