Law aspirants who missed the November 10 cut-off for AILET 2027 have three more days. National Law University Delhi has extended the last date for applications to November 13, 2026, and the new notice also sets out when fees can still be paid and when registered candidates can correct their forms.
The extension came in a notification the university published on its website today, November 11. It covers the All India Law Entrance Test for admission to the BA LLB (Hons) and LLM programmes for the 2027-28 academic session.
The revised dates
Applications now close at 11:59 pm on November 13. Anyone who has not yet applied can still register on the university portal before then.
Candidates who started the registration process but have not finished paying the fee have a little longer. The notice says fee payment will be accepted until 8 am on November 14, and requests after that time will not be considered.
Registered candidates also get a window to check and fix their forms. They can log in to the AILET 2027 portal and update personal details, the photograph, the scanned signature and test city preferences until 8 am on November 15. The university says no correction requests will be accepted after that deadline.
This is the second year in a row the university has moved the date. For AILET 2026, the original November 10, 2025 deadline was extended to November 13, 2025.
What to check before the correction window closes
The notice asks every registered candidate to log in and verify the details on the form. A misspelt name or a wrong test city is easier to fix now than after the admit card is issued.
Candidates should keep the photograph, signature, Class 10 and 12 marksheets and any category certificate ready before logging in. Our admission documents checklist covers the photo and signature specifications exam portals commonly ask for.
The university has also published guidelines for persons with disabilities appearing in AILET 2027. Support is available at ailetsupport@nludelhi.ac.in or on 011-40787555, 10 am to 5 pm on working days.
The exam date has not changed
The extension does not move the test. AILET 2027 will still be held on Sunday, December 13, 2026, from 2 pm to 4 pm, in offline mode. Admit cards will be available to download from November 30.
The BA LLB paper has 150 multiple-choice questions on English, current affairs and general knowledge, and logical reasoning, to be answered in two hours. Each correct answer carries one mark and a wrong answer costs 0.25 marks. The LLM paper has 100 multiple-choice questions and also runs for two hours.
The fee is Rs 3,000 for general, OBC and EWS candidates and Rs 1,000 for SC, ST and PwD candidates. SC/ST and women candidates below the poverty line who meet the conditions in the admission notice are exempt.
NLU Delhi stays outside the CLAT consortium, so admission to its BA LLB and LLM programmes is only through AILET. The BA LLB programme has 120 seats in total, and 110 of them are filled through AILET merit. The rest go to foreign national and OCI/PIO applicants, admitted directly on merit without sitting for the test.
Candidates can read the full notice on the official NLU Delhi website and apply through the official admission portal.
