The first step in the AILET PG selection process involves submitting the application form. Candidates must visit the official NLU Delhi website and register for the exam. During registration, personal and academic details are required, along with uploading necessary documents such as mark sheets and identity proof. Ensure all information provided is accurate to avoid disqualification. The application fee must be paid online through the available payment gateways. Keep a copy of the submitted application form and payment confirmation for future reference. Meeting the eligibility criteria, including the minimum marks in the qualifying degree, is essential for the application to be considered. The application window typically remains open for a specified period, so candidates should adhere to the deadlines announced by NLU Delhi.

After successful application submission, candidates must appear for the AILET PG entrance exam. This exam assesses the candidate's legal aptitude, reasoning skills, and general knowledge. The exam is conducted in an offline mode (pen-and-paper based) at designated test centers across India. Candidates should download their admit cards from the NLU Delhi website prior to the exam date. The admit card contains crucial details such as exam center, date, and time. It is mandatory to carry the admit card along with a valid photo ID to the exam center. The AILET PG exam pattern typically includes multiple-choice questions covering various law subjects. Candidates should prepare thoroughly by studying relevant legal concepts and practicing previous year's question papers. Time management is crucial during the exam to attempt all questions accurately.

Following the AILET PG exam, NLU Delhi evaluates the answer sheets and prepares a merit list based on the scores obtained by the candidates. The evaluation process is transparent and adheres to the guidelines set by the university. The merit list contains the names of candidates who have qualified for the next stage of the selection process, which is typically the counseling session. The merit list is published on the official NLU Delhi website. Candidates can check their results and rank using their registration details. The cut-off marks for each category (General, SC, ST, OBC, etc.) are determined based on the overall performance of the candidates. Candidates who meet the cut-off criteria are eligible for counseling.

The final stage of the AILET PG selection process is the counseling session. Candidates who have been shortlisted based on the merit list are invited to attend the counseling. During counseling, candidates are required to produce their original documents for verification. These documents include mark sheets, certificates, identity proof, and category certificates (if applicable). NLU Delhi verifies the authenticity of the documents and ensures that the candidates meet all the eligibility criteria. Seats are allotted to the candidates based on their rank in the merit list and the availability of seats in their preferred program. After seat allotment, candidates must pay the admission fee to confirm their admission. Failure to pay the fee within the stipulated time may result in cancellation of the seat. The counseling process is conducted in multiple rounds to fill all the available seats.
