ABOUT COMMON LAW ADMISSION TEST
counselling would take place after the announcement of the
CLAT-2014 results from 1st June 2014 to 9th June 2014, wherein
the candidates will be able to mark the preferences of the
NLUs for admission within the stipulated period mentioned in
the schedule.
The first 2500 candidates (comprising 40% extra candidates
proportionately from various categories such as
General/SC/ST/OBC/PWD etc.) in the merit list will be allowed
to participate in the online counseling against the actual seats
available with the participating NLUs, by logging in to the
personal LOGIN ACCOUNT created by them at the time of
registration and depositing the adjustable fees of `1,00,000/-
(Rupees One Lakh only) either online/offline through the
website.
The candidates seriously interested in taking admission
must deposit the required fees so as to be considered
against the seats available with a NLU. The candidates failing
to deposit the required fees through the website with the
CLAT Office by the specified date will forfeit their right to be
considered for admission in future and their names will be
dropped from the CLAT Merit List.
The university-wise first provisional allotment list based on
merit-cum-preference will be published on the CLAT Website
for the exact number of seats available with a NLU taking into
consideration the university-wise preferences obtained from
the candidates during the counselling session, their CLAT
score and Rank. The list will also be made available to the
respective participating Universities.
The provisionally selected candidates allotted to various NLUs
will have to reserve their seats within a stipulated period at
this stage by logging in to the personal LOGIN ACCOUNT. The
candidates will be provided with three options viz.,
I hereby take admission with the allotted university and
do not want my candidature to be considered for the
next higher preference (This option can be availed only
once), or
I hereby take admission with the allotted university and
also want my candidature to be considered for the next
higher preference, or
I hereby do not want to take part in the admission
process.
Any of the above options exercised by the candidate will be
treated as final and irrevocable. The candidates failing to
reserve their seat through the website with the CLAT Office
07
www.clat.ac.in
CLAT Common Law
Admission Test
2014
by the specified date will forfeit their right to be considered
for admission in future and their names will be dropped
from the CLAT Merit List.
A list of waitlisted candidates will also be issued along with the
Provisional Allotment List, from the first 2500 candidates who
had undertaken the counselling after remitting the fees. The
comprehensive list will be prepared by picking up candidates
proportionately from various categories such as
General/SC/ST/OBC/PWD/DFF/NRI etc. both from the All
India and State (Domicile) category of candidates.
If required, the CLAT Office will publish three more times the
Subsidiary List of candidates allotted to various Universities
against the actual left out seats.
After depositing the required amount of fees and taking part
in the counselling session with the CLAT office by the
stipulated date, if the waitlisted candidates fail to get a seat in
any of the Universities due to non-availability of vacancy, the
entire amount of ` 1,00,000/- deposited by such candidates
will be refunded to them without any deduction.
If the candidates in the merit of first 2500, do not deposit the
required amount of fees (i.e. ` 1,00,000/-) in adequate
number for being considered against probable vacancies, if
any, in future, and if the list of such candidates gets exhausted
and some vacancies still remain thereafter, then a fresh
counselling session will be undertaken by the CLAT Office.
After the candidates are finally allotted to various
Universities, the candidates will be required to approach the
allotted Universities with the balance amount towards the
admission fees and the relevant certificates/documents in
original issued by the competent authority in support of the
various claims made by the candidates, during the scheduled
period (24th - 27th June, 2014) and complete the admission
formalities. The certificates in original will be checked by the
respective Universities at the time of their admission.
The candidate not having the required certificates/
documents in original and failing to satisfy the eligibility
requirements will not be allowed to take admission by the
concerned Universities. Hence, the candidates seeking
admission under various categories - especially those
belonging to the reserved categories such as SC/ST/
OBC/PWD/DFF/NRI and the General category candidates
seeking admission under State Domicile category - will be
required to obtain in advance the relevant and authentic
certificates/documents from the competent authorities and
produce the same at the time of admission.

June 2014 including the number of vacancies that might
remain due to non-reporting of the candidates allotted under
the1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th Actual Allotment List. This would help the
CLAT Office make the declaration of the final allotment on 30th
June 2014 and complete the admission process on the same
day.

amount of fees to the allotted Universities at the time of

session by depositing the adjustable fees of `65,000/- (Rupees

 NATIONAL LAW SCHOOL OF INDIA
UNIVERSITY, BANGALORE
www.nls.ac.in
B.A., LL.B. (Hons.) PROGRAMME
National Law School of India University (NLSIU) is the first Indian
University, established exclusively for legal studies and research.
The National Law School of India Act, 1986, passed by Karnataka
Legislature, provided the statutory basis to this University. It
became functional in 1988. Sponsored by the Bar Council of
India, NLSIU represents the unique partnership between the Bar,
Bench and Academia. Eminent judges and leading lawyers have
been associating with the Law School working side by side with a
committed band of academicians.
There are independent hostels for men and women and being a
residential University, all the students have to stay in the Hostels.
The Library is kept open till midnight in order to facilitate intensive
use of academic resources.
There is a well-equipped moot court hall named after Justice M.
Hidayatullah, former Chief Justice of India. Every student of
NLSIU is expected to participate actively in the moot court
activities. Our students have kept the highest Mooting traditions
of the NLSIU by excelling in National and International Moot Court
Competitions. For the second time, in the history of Jessup, on 7th
April, 2013 NLSIU team consisting of Raag Yadav, Akshaya
Ramdurai, Geeta Hariharan and Shreya Jain has won the finals of
Jessup Moot Court Competition defeating Singapore
Management University (SMU). Raag Yadav was adjudged as the
11
www.clat.ac.in
NLSIU had a modest beginning in an old building at the Central
College Campus of Bangalore University and was shifted to the
present campus in 1991. Thereafter it has been a period of steady
growth and we have now one of the best equipped and beautiful
campuses. The Library, i.e. Shri Narayana Rao Melgiri National
Law Library is the best Law Library in the country. The entire
campus including the hostels is provided with wireless
connectivity and as a result, the students can access internet
services from anywhere in the Campus and NLSIU is the first Law
School to achieve this distinction. All the class rooms are
equipped with LCD Projectors and other facilities.
Best Oralist. NLSIU won Jessup for the first time in 1999 and 2013
is the second time that NLSIU has bagged the World Cup in Moot
Court. NLSIU, Bangalore to date is the only Law School from India
to have won Jessup Memorial Moot Court, NOT ONCE BUT TWICE.
In fact, one of the core ingredients of the NLSIU life is vibrant
debating, mooting and conference culture. Some of the most
exciting competitions, students take part in are client counseling
and negotiation competitions, which promote the art of speaking
without arguing. This goes a long way in making a successful
lawyer. Another aspect of life at Law School is the Legal Services
Clinic. One of the avowed objectives of the Legal Services Clinic is
to bridge the gap created between the legal procedures and the
common man. In pursuance of the same, the Legal Services Clinic

limited to, Prisons Project which involved providing legal aid to
the under-trial prisoners, organising street plays and also
conducting Legal Literacy Programs around Bangalore. In fact LSC
handled more than 100 cases the previous academic year alone.
The National Law School of India Review, The Indian Journal of
Law and Technology, Socio-Legal Review and the Indian Journal of
International Economics Law - these are the four prestigious
journals being published from the NLSIU. All of them are peer
reviewed and have received rave review. All these journals have
been handled by the students only.
As part of the outreach programmes, NLSIU has renewed the
earlier practice of interacting with the law colleges in India in an
attempt to extend the academic support to them from time to
time.
Ms. Anupama Kumar has been awarded the Rhodes Scholarship,
a prestigious scholarship for the year 2013. This is for the 18th
time and 8th year in succession that NLSIU students have been
selected for the Rhodes Scholarship.
4 (four) of our first year B.A., LL.B. (Hons.) students have won the
prestigious Aditya Birla Scholarship. The Aditya Birla Scholars
will receive scholarship from Aditya Birla Foundation for their
entire studies in NLSIU.
Various donors have established 14 Endowment Chairs in NLSIU
to promote the study of different subjects. These subjects include
Constitutional Law, Refugee Law, Corporate Law, International
Trade Law, Alternate Dispute Resolution, Intellectual Property
Law, Consumer Law, etc. Allen and Overy, a leading British Law
firm, has set up the Chair on International Financial Laws and Prof.
Philipp Wood, a leading authority on the subject, conducted
week's intensive course along with the attorneys of the firm in
NLSIU campus under the auspices of the Chair.

2014
The NLSIU has a well-developed research centres in Juvenile
Justice, Intellectual Property Rights, Environmental Law, Women
and the Law, Child and the Law, Social Exclusion and Inclusive
Policy.
Courses Structure
NLSIU follows a trimester system whereunder an academic year is
divided into three parts and four subjects are taught in each
trimester. As a result, a student would have completed sixty
courses by the time he / she completes the five year term. The
wide spread of subjects help our students to acquire extensive
and intensive knowledge of our legal system. All subjects are
compulsory upto the end of fourth year and optional seminar
courses are offered in the final year. These optional seminar
courses provide opportunities to specialise in certain areas. For
example, a student who wishes to pursue career in corporate law
may choose seminar courses on accountancy, securities law,
mergers and acquisitions, etc. NLSIU encourages the involvement
of outside expertise in offering seminar courses. In recent years,
the seminar courses have been offered in subjects such as
European Law, Telecommunication Law, Negotiation Skills,
International Taxation, Media Law & Ethics, etc. To find out the
courses taught at NLSIU and their distribution over the years,
please check NLSIU Website: www.nls.ac.in
Another significant method of involving scholars from outside is
by way of single credit courses. These courses normally comprise
of 18 hour lectures spread over a week. This also facilitates the
nation's otherwise busy leading professionals and academics
from foreign Universities to teach at the Law School. These are
intensive courses and focus on highly specialised areas of Law.
Some of the single credit courses offered at NLSIU during the past
couple of years include International Climate Law & Litigation,
Law, Economics and Religion: A Rational Choice Perspective,
Selected Issues in the Philosophical Foundations of Criminal Law,
International Commercial Arbitration, Constitutional Law of the
European Union, etc.

All Round Education:
NUJS has a diverse and vibrant student community from all over
India, including several foreign nationals. While the key focus is on
academics, NUJS also has a highly developed sports and cultural
programme, with teams regularly excelling at various national
level competitions. Student societies of NUJS organize 4 major
annual events the literary-cum-cultural extravaganza,
Outlawed, Invicta (national sports fest), the NUJS-Herbert Smith
National Corporate Law Moot Court Competition, and the NUJS
Parliamentary Debate. These events attract enormous
participation from the best law schools in the country.
Student societies also conduct popular year-round competitions
in music, dance, painting, quizzing, debating, creative writing and
sports. NUJS holds tournaments not just in mainstream sports
such as cricket, football and volleyball, but even sports like dodge-
ball and kabaddi. Adding colour to life at NUJS are the western and
eastern music bands, which have proved their mettle at
competitions all across the country. NUJS also has a vibrant
SPICMACAY chapter, and has hosted performers like Pt.
Hariprasad Chaurasia, Pt. Shivkumar Sharma and Smt. Shovana

literary inclinations the chance to showcase their skills. Nor do
NUJS students neglect their social responsibilities. The Legal Aid
Society provides a platform for students to apply the skills and
knowledge acquired in the classroom and meaningfully
contribute to the community. The Society takes up legal causes of
indigent people either independently or in association with other
organizations, assists other law schools in setting up their legal aid
clinics and programmes, organizes legal awareness camps and
street plays in urban and rural areas, and conducts adult

the Commonwealth Human Rights Initiative (CHRI) to launch
SHADHINOTA, a project aimed at bringing justice and legal
empowerment to inmates of correctional homes across West
Bengal. NUJS believes that it is only such holistic legal education
that can create the well-rounded leaders of tomorrow.
NUJS has an enviable track record in moot court competitions.
NUJS students emerged as the first Indian and only the second
Asian team to win the prestigious Willem C. Vis International
Commercial Arbitration Moot, Vienna. They are also the proud
winners of the 2010 edition of the ELSA Moot Court Competition,
held in Dominican Republic. NUJS students have performed

Pan Asia Award, not to mention virtually every national moot
court competition of note. Students attend and even present
papers at conferences all over the world, and have regular
publications in peer-reviewed journals of international repute.
With such a comprehensive programme, it is scarcely surprising
that in the short span of the University's existence, NUJS alumni
have distinguished themselves in a range of careers, not only on
the national but also on the international stage. The student
recruitment committee at NUJS boasts of a near 100%
recruitment success rate. Graduating students join leading law
firms and companies in India and abroad, clerk with judges at the
Supreme Court, and work towards the betterment of society with
prestigious NGOs. Many are upcoming litigators at the Supreme
Court and various High Courts. Each year an increasing number of
NUJS students gain admission to prestigious universities in U.K.
like Oxford and Cambridge, and Ivy League universities of the U.S.
such as Harvard and NYU. Many of them have been awarded
prestigious scholarships like Rhodes and INLAKS to pursue higher
studies.

experienced scholars. The faculty includes Rhodes, Fulbright,
Commonwealth and Chevening scholars, and alumni from

Fees
Despite being able to achieve a high level of academic ambience,
NUJS has maintained a relatively modest fee structure. It further
seeks to ensure that no student is forced to discontinue studies on
account of financial constraints. With generous donations of
individuals and institutions, the University has built up a
Scholarship Fund, proceeds of which are disbursed to students
every year on a "need" basis. The alumni of NUJS have also
instituted a scholarship. Arrangements are in place for students of
NUJS to secure educational loans from any Bank of their choice on
mutually agreeable terms.
Scholarships
NUJS aims to reach out to potential candidates across the length
and breadth of India and provide high quality education to those
hailing from the most marginalized and poorest sections of
society. All efforts will be made to provide free or subsidized

students on need-cum-merit basis. NUJS also offers R.Gopala
Krishnan and Saroja Gopala Krishnan scholarship for outstanding

Towards Creating Leaders and Social Engineers:
NUJS perceives legal education as a potent instrument that will
help bring about improved social order contributing in turn to
national development.
Globalisation has thrown up new challenges and newer issues of
concern. NUJS students are expected to adequately arm
themselves to combat these challenges in mission mode. The
standards set in NUJS are already very high. Those who join NUJS
are expected not only to sustain, but also to improve upon these
standards. NUJS promises the best return on their dedication,
hard labour and committed efforts. In all, the NUJS experience
will enable students to think out of the box and equip them with
skills necessary to transform them into the social engineers and
leaders of tomorrow.

UNIVERSITY, PATNA

Education, from time immemorial, has been the fulcrum around
which the troika of society, polity and culture have prospered.
Law, on the other hand, has been enjoined to not only maintain an
equitable balance within this troika but also to ensure that the
troika truly delivers what it is supposed to deliver for the greater
good of humanity. By implication then, the quality of legal
education is but a clear barometer of the advancement of a
nation, since law is considered as the first act of human wisdom.
The challenges for individual institutions and national higher
education systems in this global environment will depend upon the
social, economic, political and cultural development in developing
nations. In the State of Bihar, where the seeds of the earliest
republic were sown and the crop of democracy cultivated, a need
was felt by the government for a university which would provide
quality legal education and strive to raise national legal standards
to competitive international level and promote legal awareness in
the community and to inculcate social responsibility which will lead
to the realization of goals embodied in the Constitution of India.
The Undergraduate programme of the University will be
specifically geared to the current requirements of the judiciary and
the legal profession, such as the techniques of advocacy, lawyering,
arbitration, mediation, conciliation and legal and legislative
58
www.clat.ac.in
Hence, it is not a matter of coincidence that the leadership of
Bihar strove to establish an institution of quality legal education
in its efforts to restore the pride and glory of this holy land and its
ethos which not only saw the earliest civilization and polity but
also institutions of learning that attracted scholars and students
from across the world. The Chanakya National Law University is
but a tribute to that ethos and an expression of the determination
to revive the past glory.
drafting and familiarity with the judicial process. It will aim to
inculcate in the young minds of students an analytical, innovative
critical and socially relevant, yet pragmatic, understanding and
application of law. The world of higher education in the 21st
century can truly be a borderless world of knowledge and ideas,
which will yield reciprocal benefits for all nations.

Scholarship
To financially help its deserving and needy students, NLUO is
going to offer a small number of scholarships. The university will
also make every effort to announce scholarships offered by
outside agencies which may be of interest to our students.
Earning While Learning
'Earning while learning' is a student aid scheme instituted by
NLUO to help students tide over financial insufficiency. Under this
scheme NLUO allows students to serve in the library in lieu of
remuneration to be decided by the University or work in the
projects undertaken either by the university or faculty members.
Owing to limited positions, students will be required to apply for
these posts at the beginning of the semester. The University will
select candidates on the basis of merit and need.
