CLAT 2027: registration open, nothing new today
The Consortium of NLUs' CLAT 2027 page still shows registration open through 31 October 2026, for admission to the five-year integrated LL.B. and one-year LL.M. programmes at the 24 participating National Law Universities. The test itself is set for 6 December 2026, 2-4 PM, in offline mode, with no syllabus or pattern changes for this cycle. The consortium's notifications panel showed no dated update as of this morning.
AILET 2027: last date 10 November, admit card 30 November
National Law University, Delhi runs AILET independently of the CLAT consortium — a CLAT application does not cover NLU Delhi admission. Per the official AILET 2027 portal, applications opened 7 August 2026 and close 10 November 2026, for 120 seats in the BA LLB (Hons.) programme. Admit cards are due 30 November 2026, and the test is scheduled for 13 December 2026, 2-4 PM, offline.
SLAT 2027: registration closes 4 December, two attempts allowed
Symbiosis International's official SLAT 2027 dates page confirms registration and payment close 4 December 2026. Candidates get two computer-based test dates — 19 and 26 December 2026 — and may sit for both; if they do, the higher percentile score counts toward the final result, with no cross-test normalisation penalty. Admit cards go live in two batches, 11 and 18 December, ahead of the respective test dates. Results are due 12 January 2027. SLAT covers admission to the four Symbiosis Law Schools — Pune, Noida, Hyderabad and Nagpur.
What this means for students
With no fresh deadline to react to today across any of the three exams, the practical priority for CLAT and AILET candidates stays the same: steady mock-test practice ahead of December's test dates, rather than waiting on notifications that aren't due yet. CLAT admit cards typically follow around two weeks before the test, which would put their release in the second half of November — worth a periodic check on the consortium's portal rather than a fixed date to bank on. SLAT aspirants should keep in mind the two-attempt structure is a genuine safety net: a weaker 19 December sitting doesn't cost you if 26 December goes better.
Important pointers
Dated, sourced, standalone facts — 17 September 2026
- [Checked 17 Sep 2026] CLAT 2027 registration closes 31 October 2026 and the test is on 6 December 2026, per the Consortium of NLUs' official CLAT 2027 page.
- [Checked 17 Sep 2026] AILET 2027 applications close 10 November 2026, with admit cards due 30 November 2026 and the test on 13 December 2026, per nationallawuniversitydelhi.in.

- Admit card timing: CLAT's admit card has historically released roughly 15 days before the test in past cycles, which would put CLAT 2027's release in the second half of November 2026 — not yet confirmed on a fixed date as of today.
- Myth check: CLAT, AILET and SLAT are run by three entirely separate bodies — the Consortium of NLUs, National Law University Delhi, and Symbiosis International, respectively. Registering for or clearing one does not register a candidate for, or count toward, either of the other two.
