CLAT has 22 participating institutes, including 22 national law universities. All 22 NLUs provide 5-year LLB programmes, while 19 offer one-year programmes. It's worth noting that, in addition to the NLUs, there are a slew of other CLAT-affiliated institutes and universities that accept CLAT scores for entrance. The NLUs differ in that they can also employ other test scores, such as the AILET. Furthermore, they do not participate in the consortium of NLUs' CLAT counselling process.
