CLAT 2025 Round 1 Cutoff Ranks Released: Check NLU-Wise Opening and Closing Ranks Here
The Consortium of National Law Universities (NLUs) has officially released the CLAT 2025 Round 1 Cutoff Ranks for admission into undergraduate and postgraduate law programs across the top NLUs in India. These cutoff ranks indicate the last rank at which admission was offered in the first allotment list for each category, providing crucial insight for candidates aiming for top law schools in the country.
This announcement is a significant step in the CLAT 2025 admission process, as it helps candidates assess their chances of securing a seat in their desired NLU, and plan accordingly for subsequent rounds of counselling.
What Does the Round 1 Cutoff Include?
The Round 1 cutoff ranks are category-specific and NLU-wise, meaning each National Law University has a separate cutoff rank based on:
- General category
- OBC, SC, ST, and other reserved categories
- State domicile and All India seats
This allows aspirants to compare how their CLAT 2025 scores and ranks align with the previous trends and evaluate their chances for upcoming rounds.
