Candidates aspiring to pursue undergraduate or postgraduate law programmes at National Law Universities (NLUs) have entered the final stretch of the application process for the Common Law Admission Test (CLAT) 2027. With the registration window set to close on October 31, 2026, students have only 10 days remaining to submit their applications and complete the necessary fee payments.

The Consortium of National Law Universities, which oversees the examination, has confirmed that the portal will remain open for submissions until 11:59 pm on the final date. Given the limited time left, applicants are encouraged to finalise their entries promptly to avoid any last-minute technical issues or complications that could jeopardise their eligibility for the upcoming academic session.

Application Process and Examination Details

The registration process for CLAT 2027 officially commenced on August 3, 2026. To participate in the examination, which is scheduled to take place on December 6, 2026, candidates must register through the official website at consortiumofnlus.ac.in. The application procedure requires students to provide accurate personal and academic information, upload mandatory documentation, and specify their preferred law programmes.

A critical component of the registration is the payment of the application fee. The Consortium has clarified that an application will only be considered complete once the form has been successfully submitted and the corresponding fee has been processed before the October 31 deadline. Applicants are advised to review all entered details thoroughly, as errors in the submission process may lead to the rejection of the application. The examination will facilitate admissions into various law courses offered by participating NLUs for the 2027–28 academic year.
