CLAT 2027 Eligibility: No Subject Limitation for UG Candidates

The latest CLAT 2027 eligibility criteria make it clear that students do not need to study a particular subject in Class 12 to appear for the undergraduate law entrance exam.

Students from Science, Commerce, Arts/Humanities and other recognised streams can apply for CLAT UG 2027. There is no separate requirement to have studied Legal Studies, Political Science, Mathematics or any other specific subject in Class 11 or Class 12.

For CLAT UG, candidates must have passed Class 12 or be appearing in the qualifying examination. Candidates belonging to the General, OBC, PwD, NRI, PIO and OCI categories need at least 45% aggregate marks, while SC and ST candidates need at least 40% marks. There is also no upper age limit for CLAT 2027.

This no subject compulsion in CLAT 2027 is particularly relevant for students who are considering law after studying Science or Commerce in Class 12.

CLAT 2027 Application Fee
