The Consortium of National Law Universities (NLUs) held the Common Law Admission Test (CLAT 2020) today, i.e., September 28. The CLAT 2020 exam was conducted from 2 pm to 4 pm in the computer-based test mode. The CLAT 2020 result will be announced on October 5. CLAT 2020 cutoff will be released by the NLU Consortium from October 9 onwards. For undergraduate or postgraduate courses, the CLAT cut off is the last rank for which the CLAT admission is offered.
CLAT cutoff 2020 is released separately for all CLAT participating institutes. CLAT cutoff 2020 will be different for every institute, taking into consideration the various parameters such as sanctioned seat intake of national law universities, applications received for admission, candidates' performance in CLAT exam, and choice selected by the candidates.
Three rounds of CLAT counselling will be conducted. For each of these rounds, CLAT cutoff will be announced separately.
Candidates not meeting the cutoff score in round 1 and or 2 of CLAT counselling will be allowed to participate in subsequent rounds of CLAT counselling, but any candidate not attending the final round would likely be disqualified.
