I am undergoing graduation in BBALLB(HONS.). I am in 3rd year of my law school. The quality of teaching is at par in reference to other esteemed law universities. Curriculum is judiciary based. So if cracking judiciary is your goal, you are at the right place.

No regrets in enrolling

I'm studying B.B.A LL.B. (Hons.). Though the subject is very vast in itself I find it interesting. Faculties are good and are highly qualified (except for a few). Personal guidance from seniors can do a lot of help. Mooting and debating societies adds on to the academics. Examination is conducted in a well precised manner.

Have a question related to CNLU Patna ?

hello...my clat air rank is 9736 and obc rank is 1256 bihar domicile...is there any chance of getting into cnlu???

Hello Aspirant,

Based on the analysis of previous year's cut-off and keeping some other factors in mind, as per your CLAT 2022 rank and category y ou have almost no chances in CNLU Patna even for state reserved seats .

But note that above prediction is based on previous year's data of cut-offs of different institutions and the cut-offs are bound to change every year depending upon the various factors such as

-->> Total number of candidates appeared in the CLAT 2022 entrance exam

-->> Difficulty level of Paper

-->> Top score

-->> The seat intake for the 5-year LLB / LLM program

-->> Total candidates from reservation categories (SC, ST, etc.)

-->> Previous year's cutoff trends

So don't assume it as final admission call from the respected institute. You will have to appear for seat allotment process.

And you can get all details about CLAT seat allotment process from the link given below :-

I AM AIMING FOR CNLU PATNA IN CLAT 2021 I AM FROM GENERAL EWS CATEGORY AND DOMICILE OF BIHAR. SO AROUND WHAT SCORE CAN I GET CNLU PATNA FOR SURE ???

Hello aspirant,

The Consortium of National Law Universities publishes the CNLU Patna 2021 cut off for counselling and seat allotment process. The CNLU 2021 cut off will be the last rank in the CLAT merit list that will be accepted for admission in UG and PG law courses. The CNLU 2021 cut off will be drafted on the basis of various factors like:- the number of seats available in the university, number of applicants, reservation policy and many more. There are 7 seats reserved for the EWS category students. CNLU Patna Cutoff All India Rank 2020 for CLAT exam for EWS category was 2995. The marks scored in the entrance test is not taken into consideration for merit list. By seeing the cutoff AIR of 2020 you can have an idea what can be the cutoff for this year.

Hope this helps,

All the Best!!
