Seats are allotted based on the candidate's rank in the entrance exam merit list, reservation category, and seat availability at the time of counselling. Higher-ranked candidates get the first choice of available seats. Once a seat is chosen and the admission fee is paid, the allotment becomes final. Candidates who delay their decision may lose the seat to others. AMU follows a transparent, rank-based system for allocation, ensuring that seats are filled strictly according to merit and reservation rules applicable to the BA LLB programme for that admission year.

Yes, in certain cases, AMU allows candidates to authorise a representative to attend counselling. You must provide a signed authorisation letter, copies of your ID and the representative's ID, and all required original documents for verification. The representative must strictly follow AMU's guidelines and complete all formalities on your behalf, including fee payment. However, it's always better to attend personally, as seat selection may require quick decision-making. Check the official counselling instructions to confirm if such representation is allowed for the 2026 session and under what specific conditions.

Yes. Candidates must pay the prescribed counselling/admission fee during the counselling process to confirm their seat. The exact amount will be mentioned in the official counselling notification. Payment can usually be made via demand draft, online transfer, or other modes specified by AMU. This fee is separate from the entrance exam application fee and is often adjusted against the first-semester tuition fee. Failure to pay within the given time will result in cancellation of the allotted seat. Keep the payment receipt safely as proof of admission confirmation.
