Application form extended
NLUD has also extended the application form of AILET 2020 till July 11. Eligible candidates can apply online through the admission portal of the university.
Hostel allocation policy

For Delhi/NCR students, hostel allotment will be subject to availability of accommodation after hostels are allotted to students coming from outside Delhi/NCR.

National Testing Agency on behalf of NLUD will conduct AILET 2020 on August 18. In view of the COVID-19 outbreak, the university will conduct the entrance exam in online remote proctored mode.
