The Founding Vice Chancellor Professor (Dr.) C. Raj Kumar, who's also the Founding Dean of JGLS, highlighted the success of the law school admissions this year and said: "Our best decision was to use the LNAT Test for JGLS admissions. LNAT Test, being the world's leading law school admissions test administered by the LNAT Consortium based at the University of Oxford, is a standardised test of reading comprehension and logical thinking. It has no questions on law, general knowledge, mathematics, or anything based on rote learning. Students can take the LNAT anytime, anywhere in the world at over 500 centers during the test window. I'm glad to see a perfect and flawless administration of this Test worldwide and providing JGLS aspirants a fair and smooth opportunity to compete."
225 Seats to be Admitted
Professor Anand Prakash Mishra, Vice Dean, JGLS and Director of Law Admissions of the University, further added that "We admitted 75% of seats in the 5-year LLB Hons programmes (BCom LLB, BA LLB & BBA LLB) in the Early Admission Process itself, which ended on 31st January. The deadline of 30th April applies to the remaining 25% of seats in each programme. JGLS has an approved intake of 300 seats (5 sections of 60 seats each) in all three 5-year law programs. We will admit 75 seats in each of the three programs or 225 seats in total, based on the LNAT Test taken on or before 30th April. Today, the brightest students in the country are aspiring to study law, and most aspire to study at JGLS as well. This is the last opportunity for students willing to join our law school in the academic year 2025-26 starting 1st of August 2025."
