L.L.M. Eligibility The LLM program can be done only by those who have successfully completed their under graduation in law i.e. LLB/BL degree/5-year LLB degree course under 10+2+5 pattern or an equivalent degree from a recognized university with not less than 55% marks in the aggregate (50% in case of reserved categories, i.e., SC/ST/Persons with Disability). Percentage and other criteria are mostly the same but may vary as per an institutes policy. There is no restriction on the age for admission to most of the Masters in law courses offered through distance. In fact, a candidate with a graduate degree from any recognized university is eligible to earn a Master's degree in law through distance. Even candidates studying any other course through regular classroom module can opt for these law courses. The admission procedure and mode of selection of various law schools may differ but the screening is based on the merit of the candidate. The intake for the LLM varies depending upon the institute. Certain seats are allocated to foreign nationals. As per NALSAR, foreign nationals are exempted from taking the Common Law Admission Test (CLAT). The admission shall be made on the basis of the academic record of BL/LLB or equivalent recognized by UGC/Association of Indian universities with not less than 55% marks or equivalent grade and copy of the student visa endorsement on the passport.
