CLAT 2027: Exam Centre List Revised, Vellore and Tiruvarur Removed

The Consortium of National Law Universities (NLU) has issued an official notification regarding a revision to the examination centre list for the Common Law Admission Test (CLAT) 2027. According to the latest update, two cities—Vellore and Tiruvarur—have been removed from the list of designated test centres for the upcoming entrance examination.

This administrative change means that the examination will no longer be conducted in these two locations. Consequently, any candidates who had previously designated Vellore or Tiruvarur as their preferred test city must take immediate action to ensure their participation in the exam is not disrupted. The Consortium has initiated a specific process to allow these affected students to select alternative examination centres.

Updating Test Centre Preferences

The Consortium of National Law Universities has opened a dedicated window for candidates to modify their test city preferences in light of these changes. It is important for applicants to note that this facility is strictly limited to updating the test centre selection and does not function as a general application correction window for other details in the CLAT 2027 registration form.

To update their preferences, candidates are required to log in to their registered accounts on the official CLAT portal. Once logged in, they can navigate to the section designated for test city selection and choose an alternative location from the current list of available centres. The Consortium has advised all affected students to complete this process promptly to avoid any last-minute complications regarding their examination venue allocation.

Next Steps for Candidates

Students who had previously opted for either Vellore or Tiruvarur as their primary or secondary test city choice should monitor the official website for further updates and ensure their new selection is successfully saved within their candidate profile. By proactively updating their centre preference, candidates will ensure that the Consortium can allocate them to a functional examination venue for the CLAT 2027 cycle.
