Symbiosis International (Deemed University)'s official SLAT test website is now displaying "SLAT 2027 enquiries open" on its homepage — the first public signal that the next admission cycle for the Symbiosis Law Admission Test has begun, even though full registration dates have not yet been announced.
What's actually confirmed
A direct check of the official site, slat-test.org, on 12 August shows the SLAT 2026 cycle (for the 2026-27 academic year) is fully closed — its two test dates (20 and 28 December 2025) and result date (15 January 2026) have already passed, and the homepage now carries an "Applications Closed" banner for SLAT 2026 alongside a new "SLAT 2027 enquiries open" prompt for the next cycle. No SLAT 2027 registration opening date, test date or fee schedule has been published yet; the site's own "Important Dates" page still lists only SLAT 2026 information. Symbiosis Law Schools admit students for B.A. LL.B. (Hons.), B.B.A. LL.B. (Hons.), B.A. LL.B. and B.B.A. LL.B. programmes across four campuses — Pune, Noida, Hyderabad and Nagpur — through SLAT.
What this means for aspirants
Students planning to sit SLAT 2027 alongside CLAT and AILET should treat this as an early heads-up rather than a call to register: the enquiry window lets prospective candidates join Symbiosis's update list ahead of the formal notification, but paying a fee or submitting a full application isn't possible yet. Past cycles opened full registration several months before the test date and closed it roughly three weeks before it, so a similar pattern this year would put registration opening sometime in the September-October window, ahead of a test likely to fall in December 2026 — though this is only a pattern-based expectation, not a confirmed date. Aspirants should track slat-test.org directly rather than rely on third-party estimates once the real date is announced.
Important pointers
- [15 Jan 2026] SLAT 2026 results were declared, closing that admission cycle, per the official SLAT test site.
- [12 Aug 2026] The official SLAT test website began displaying "SLAT 2027 enquiries open," confirmed via a direct site check.
- [Ongoing] No SLAT 2027 registration date, test date or fee schedule has been officially announced yet — the site's own Important Dates page still shows only SLAT 2026 information.
- Four campuses: SLAT admits to Symbiosis Law Schools in Pune, Noida, Hyderabad and Nagpur, across B.A. LL.B. (Hons.), B.B.A. LL.B. (Hons.), B.A. LL.B. and B.B.A. LL.B. programmes.
- Myth check: "Enquiries open" is not the same as "registration open" — submitting the enquiry form only adds you to Symbiosis's update list, it does not create an application or reserve a test slot.
