College predictors from official lists

College predictors built on the official cut-off tables of the last admission year. Each band names the year and list behind it.

Quick answer

There are two predictors so far, both for five-year law degrees. The CLAT NLU predictor checks your CLAT rank against the closing ranks the Consortium of NLUs printed in its five CLAT 2026 allotment lists, for all 37 programmes at 26 NLU campuses. The AILET NLU Delhi predictor does the same for NLU Delhi, which runs its own test and is not part of CLAT. NLU Delhi prints no cut-off table, so we read its seven 2026 merit lists and took the highest rank offered a seat in each category. Both tools put each seat in one of three bands. It is possible if your rank is at or inside last year's closing rank, safe if your rank is no more than three quarters of that closing rank, and a reach if your rank is up to a quarter past it. The bands show how 2026 went and cannot promise anyone a seat in 2027.

NALSAR Hyderabad's closing CLAT 2026 ranks for all 17 seat classes in lists 1 to 5, the Telangana resident seats and their rule, and the 2026-27 first-year fee.

What this section covers

  • Law admissions for now: CLAT for 26 NLU campuses and AILET for NLU Delhi. We plan JoSAA (engineering) next, then NEET UG and the state CETs.
  • Every figure comes from an official allotment or merit list PDF, and each page names the list and the date we read it.
  • There is no sign-up, and no counsellor will call you.
  • We leave out rank-from-marks guesses, paid counselling and "guaranteed seat" claims.

NLU Delhi prints no cut-off, so the AILET figure is our reading of its merit lists.

Tips and tricks

  • Use the rank you actually have. Neither tool estimates a rank from marks.
  • Write both exams if law is the plan. CLAT and AILET are separate tests, and NLU Delhi admits only through AILET.
  • Run each tool twice: once with General only, then with your category, state or PwD class ticked. Count only the classes whose certificate you hold.
  • Look past the first list. In 2026 the General offers at NLU Delhi moved from AIR 61 in the first list to AIR 76 by the seventh.
  • Check the year on each band. Every result names the year and list it came from, so a 2026 figure never passes for a 2027 one.

Questions people ask

Which college predictors does CorrectPath have?

Two, both for law: CLAT (37 programmes at 26 NLU campuses) and AILET (NLU Delhi). We plan to add engineering, medical and state CET predictors later.[5]

Are these the official cut-offs?

For CLAT, yes: the closing ranks come from the Cut-Off Rank Table the Consortium printed in each list. NLU Delhi prints no table, so the AILET figure is the highest rank it offered a seat to in each class across its seven 2026 lists.[13]

How are safe, possible and reach worked out?

From last year's closing rank, call it C. Your rank is possible up to C, safe up to three quarters of C, and a reach up to one and a quarter times C. A rank past that was out of range in 2026.[5]

Is NLU Delhi part of CLAT?

No. NLU Delhi admits through its own test, AILET, and is not in the Consortium's CLAT 2026 lists. Use the AILET NLU Delhi predictor for it.[14]

When is CLAT 2027?

On Sunday 6 December 2026. Applications close on 31 October 2026.[6]

When is AILET 2027?

On Sunday 13 December 2026. Applications close on Tuesday 10 November 2026.[15]
