The admission process at Symbiosis Law School is conducted through an entrance examination for all courses. This institution administers its own entrance exam, known as SLAT for undergraduate courses and AIAT for postgraduate courses, to select candidates. Below is an overview of the SLS Pune admission process outlined in the following steps:
STEP 1: Entrance Exam Registration and Application Process
Candidates start the application process by registering for SLAT. To register, candidates must visit the portal and complete the registration form. After filling out the form, candidates are required to pay a registration fee of INR 2,550 to complete the process. For LLM admissions, Symbiosis Law School, Pune has a separate portal for AIAT registrations, where candidates must follow the same steps mentioned above.
Once candidates have registered for SLAT, they can proceed to apply for their desired course at Symbiosis Law School. The application fee for each course is INR 1,000.
STEP 2: Selection Process
The selection of candidates is based on the SLAT results obtained for Integrated Law programs, determined by their SLAT scores. Conversely, AIAT results are taken into account during the LLM admission process at Symbiosis Law School. After the shortlisting process is completed, selected candidates are invited for a personal interview round, which is conducted online. Upon completion of this round, candidates receive final scores, with 70% weightage given to the entrance exam score and 30% weightage to the performance in the PI round.
STEP 3: Document Verification & Payment of Admission Fee
Selected students receive provisional admission letters that include details regarding the acceptance fees. This fee typically constitutes a small portion of the tuition fees along with a security deposit. Once this fee is paid, document verification commences, after which a candidate's admission to SLS Pune is finalized.
