Law Entrance Exam

Yes, a student with a low CLAT 2026 score can still secure admission to Chandigrah University's BA LLB or B.Com. LLB Programs. CU does not requie CLAT fro admission, as it has its own entrance exam called CUCET, which is mandatory for all law aspirants. Your admission depends entirely on CUCET perfromance and meeting the basic 10+2 eligibilty criteria (50-60% depending on the program).

Even if your CLAT score is low, you can prepare specifically for CUCET, where your legal reasoning, general aptitude, and language skills are tested. Performing well in CUCET can also make you eligibale for schalorships. Therefore, CLAT results do not block your path, and with focused preparation, you can confidently secure a seat in the university's integrated law programs. 

Chandigarh University's University Institute of Legal Studies (UILS) has a practical and career-focused curriculum that helps CLAT 2026-qualified students prepare for corporate law, litigation, or the judiciary. The programme covers all important subjects, including corporate law, criminal law, constitutional law, and intellectual property, so students can choose the area they want to specialize in.

UILS also gives students plenty of practical experience. You can take part in moot courts, ADR workshops, pro bono legal projects, and internships with top law firms, corporate legal teams, and courts. Experienced advocates and faculty provide guidance and mentorship throughout the course. This mix of classroom learning and hands-on practice ensures students are ready to start their careers confidently in litigation, corporate law, or judicial services after graduation.
