And the most important thing to know upfront is this: there is no upper age limit, no strict stream requirement, and only a minimum qualifying percentage in Class 12 is needed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The CLAT 2027 eligibility criteria require candidates to have passed or be appearing in their Class 12 (or equivalent) with at least 45% marks for General\/OBC and 40% for SC\/ST\/PWD. Students from any stream\u2014Science, Commerce, or Arts\u2014can apply. Even if your results are awaited, you are eligible, provided you meet the criteria at the time of admission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Understanding the CLAT exam eligibility criteria early helps you avoid confusion later and plan your preparation with clarity. Many students assume restrictions that don\u2019t exist and delay their preparation unnecessarily. If you already meet these basic requirements, your focus should shift to building a strong preparation strategy, solving mocks, and improving accuracy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lawpreptutorial.com\/blog\/free-online-clat-coaching\/?utm_source=SEO&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=clat-eligibility\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"374\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lawpreptutorial.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/free-online-clat-coaching.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-39531\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-luminous-vivid-amber-background-color has-background\"><strong>Upcoming CLAT Exams:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lawpreptutorial.com\/blog\/clat\/2027-details\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">CLAT 2027<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lawpreptutorial.com\/blog\/clat\/2028-details\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">CLAT 2028<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-vivid-red-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-2a39eafc3bdef2b13abae7fb14e0e78f\"><strong>What is CLAT?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lawpreptutorial.com\/blog\/clat\/\">CLAT exam<\/a>, or Common Law Admission Test, is a national entrance exam for admission to undergraduate (UG) and postgraduate (PG) law programs at 27 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lawpreptutorial.com\/blog\/national-law-universities\/\">National Law Universities (NLUs) in India<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This law entrance test assesses candidates in English, Current Affairs including GK, Legal Reasoning, Logical Reasoning, and Quantitative Techniques.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The purpose of the CLAT is to ensure a standardized evaluation for law school admissions, determining if candidates have the essential skills and knowledge for a career in law.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-vivid-red-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-dcb42524a304a600c0ad2726d3688cb3\"><strong>CLAT 2027 Eligibility Criteria: Overview<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Below is the overview of the eligibility criteria for CLAT 2027:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>CLAT UG Eligibility<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>CLAT UG exam is for students in the 12th and 12th pass-out classes.
