B.A LLB Counselling

Once a seat is allotted and the admission fee is paid, changes are usually not allowed. However, in subsequent counselling rounds, you may get a chance to upgrade if higher-preference seats become available. This depends on vacancies created by withdrawals or non-confirmations from earlier rounds. AMU's upgrade policy, if applicable, will be mentioned in the counselling guidelines. Candidates seeking changes should attend later rounds with all required documents and be ready to pay any additional fees if the upgraded seat falls in a different category or fee structure.

If your documents are incomplete or unavailable during counselling, AMU may provisionally withhold your admission until you submit them within a specified time. However, this is entirely at the discretion of the admission authorities and is not guaranteed. In most cases, candidates without original documents are not considered for final seat allotment. It's strongly advised to arrange all required certificates, mark sheets, and ID proofs well before the counselling date. Delays or missing papers can lead to cancellation of your candidature, even if you have a high merit rank.

The number of counselling rounds depends on seat availability and the number of confirmed admissions in each round. Usually, AMU conducts at least two to three rounds for BA LLB admissions. The first round fills most seats, while the second and third rounds accommodate candidates from the waiting list or those who missed earlier sessions. The exact number of rounds varies each year and will be notified on the official AMU website. Candidates should regularly check updates to ensure they do not miss a counselling opportunity.

Yes, AMU usually maintains a waiting list of candidates who narrowly missed securing a seat in the initial counselling rounds. If allotted candidates withdraw or fail to confirm admission within the stipulated time, seats are offered to candidates from the waiting list in order of merit. Inclusion in the waiting list does not guarantee admission—it depends entirely on the number of available vacancies. Candidates on the waiting list should stay alert to updates and be prepared to attend subsequent counselling rounds on short notice if called by AMU.

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.
