Symbiosis International University (SIU) has published the SLAT 2026 first merit list for candidates seeking admission to law programmes at Symbiosis Law School campuses. The first round of seat allotments for SLS Pune and SLS Noida is now available online on the official portal. The SLAT (Symbiosis Law Admission Test) merit list determines which applicants have been shortlisted for admission based on their SLAT score and Personal Interaction (PI) performance. Students listed in the first merit round must complete the admission formalities within the specified timeline to secure their seats.
SLAT 2026 First Merit List Release and How to Check
The first merit list for SLS Pune and SLS Noida was released on 12 February 2026 on the SLAT official portal slat-test.org. Shortlisted candidates must log in using their credentials to view their allotment status. To download the merit list:

Students who find their names in the list should immediately follow the admission instructions, which include document verification and fee payment.
Campus-Wise Merit List Dates and Admission Windows
The release dates for first merit lists vary across SLS campuses. SLS Pune and SLS Noida lists were made available on 12 February 2026, while SLS Nagpur’s first merit list was released on 10 February. The first merit list for SLS Hyderabad is expected on 16 February 2026. After the first list, subsequent merit lists will be published if seats remain vacant. For example, the second and third merit lists are scheduled later in February and March across campuses.
Expected Cutoff and Next Steps in SLAT Admission
Although SIU does not officially publish cut-off scores, preliminary data suggest expected cutoff ranges for various campuses. Pune typically sees higher cutoffs, while other campuses may be slightly lower based on applicant performance. Candidates who are not in the first merit list can await subsequent lists. Those allocated seats must complete admission formalities by the deadline specified in the notification to confirm their enrollment. The SLAT 2026 admission process continues with further rounds of allotment, counselling and document verification as per schedule released by each campus.
