CLAT Cut Off- Expected and Previous Year's NLU Cut Off

The Consortium of National Law Universities organizes CLAT annually, with different National Law Universities taking turns to conduct it. Following the CLAT 2026 results, the Consortium of NLUs will declare the cutoff for various NLUs. This comprehensive list is calculated by considering various factors and is determined based on the opening and closing ranks for the 24 participating NLUs (excluding NLU Tripura, which has opted out for 2025-26). The cut-off is typically published a few days later. The CLAT 2025-2026 registration process is open from August 01, 2025, to October 31, 2025, with the exam scheduled for December 07, 2025, conducted in pen and paper mode with 120 questions.

Admissions officers will examine the following factors when determining the cut-off:

If any of these factors change, the CLAT cut-off will also change. For example, the cutoff will rise if the number of applications grows. In contrast, as the number of applicants decreases, the cutoff will most certainly decrease as well.
