How to Register for CLAT 2023 Counselling?

The counselling procedure of CLAT 2023 is expected to be done via an online centralized system. It is conducted separately for UG and PG programs. The entire process is done as per the CLAT Exam Dates created by the conducting authorities.

The stepwise procedure for final admissions to the 22 NLUs is as follows:

Step 1: Results Published

Once the results and merit lists are published to shortlist candidates for the final admissions, they are going to be available on the official website. On merit-cum-preference basis of CLAT 2023 scores, the first list for CLAT counselling will be declared after the publishing of results.

Step 2: Selection of NLUs

Shortlisted candidates are invited to register for their preferred NLUs through the official website. Candidates are required to select a minimum of five preferred colleges.
