CLAT 2021 exam centre edit open to open shortly

Now that the CLAT registration is closed, the consortium will allow candidates to change their test centre and select a nearby one; this is done in view of the COVID-19 pandemic. Candidates are advised to select their nearest test centres in the order of preference.

CLAT is a national level law entrance exam that is conducted in offline, pen and paper format. The test was originally scheduled to be held on May 09, 2021, however, due to the now-cancelled CBSE Board exams dates and COVID-19 pandemic, the exam remained postponed till the new date was announced. There are around 2622 seats available in UG law programmes and more than 700 LLM seats that will be offered by participating NLUs through CLAT. The CLAT score will also be used by many other affiliated law schools for their admission process.
