Uncertainty Over Counseling Schedule

The counseling process for CLAT 2025, which was initially scheduled to begin in January, has been repeatedly delayed due to legal proceedings. With the latest deferral, the Consortium is unlikely to proceed with admissions until the High Court delivers a final ruling. This has caused anxiety among students, who are unsure about the next steps in their academic journey.

Students Express Frustration

Many CLAT aspirants have taken to social media, expressing frustration over the lack of clarity regarding their ranks and the delayed admission process. “This uncertainty is affecting our future. We just want a fair resolution soon,” said one candidate.

Yes, the application form for CLAT was released long back in August. Those who have not filled the form yet must understand that there is no right day to fill the form. You should fill is as soon as possible. Because if you miss it you have to wait one more year unnecessarily to appear in the exam.

The last date to submit the application form is October 31, 2025. It must be noted that the consortium will open the application correction window after that. Sometimes the consortium do extend the last date for registration but it is better to fill the form way before and why to wait.

Yes, you can fill out the CLAT Application Form in phases. There is an option to save in every step. However, it will be better if you fill the form in one go. For this, you should keep all the documents ready in hand. See if you fill the form in one go you don't have to worry about it.
