Chandigarh University offers many scholarships, but students can take only one at a time. If a student qualifies for multiple scholarships, they must choose the best one. The university does not allow combining or swapping scholarships later. Once selected, students have to stick with it.

Hi! 

As far as I know BA LLB students at Chandigarh University do not need to wear a uniform every day. The university follows a smart casual dress code for most undergraduate and postgraduate programs. Students can wear decent and appropriate clothes that match the professional and disciplined environment of the campus. There are no strict rules for daily uniform wear.

However, on Wednesdays, wearing a uniform is compulsory. All students, including BA LLB students, must follow this rule. This helps maintain discipline and professionalism. On other days, students can wear casual but decent clothes.

So, BA LLB students at Chandigarh U
