NLU Delhi fees for 5 years for SC category are not stated in the sources behind this guide, so no total is given here. The total depends on three layers: the CLAT 2027 application fee of Rs 3,500 for SC candidates, NLU college tuition, and coaching. Check the official NLU Delhi fee notice before budgeting.

What NLU Delhi Fees for 5 Years for SC Category Cover

When families search for NLU Delhi fees for 5 years for SC category, they usually want one number: the total they will pay across a five year BA LLB (Hons) course. That total is made up of several separate costs. It includes the entrance exam fee, the college fee paid during the course, and any coaching a student takes to prepare for the entrance test.

The figure that is missing from our sources is the NLU Delhi tuition amount, both per year and across five years. The sources also do not confirm whether any NLU Delhi fee concession applies to SC candidates. So this guide does not give a five year total. It shows you what to add up and where to find each number. Readers who want more detail can start with our page on Online AILET Coaching 2027 | Live NLU Delhi Prep by Faculty | Clat Coaching.

Consider a student who budgets only for the Rs 3,500 SC exam fee and treats that as the full cost of getting into law school. Once admitted, the college fee arrives as a separate bill, and coaching, if taken, is another. The exam fee is the smallest and most visible part of the plan, which is why it is easy to budget for it alone and miss the rest.

Who This Guide Is For and Who It Is Not For

This guide is written for SC category students and their parents who are planning for CLAT or AILET and want a clear cost checklist before applying. It is most useful at the planning stage, when a family is deciding how much to set aside and which exam to prepare for. For more detail, see our page on CLAT Coaching Delhi.

It may not suit everyone. Readers who need a final fee quote will not find one here, because the sources do not give an official five year NLU Delhi figure. Students who are already enrolled in an NLU course should rely on their own university fee notices, not a planning guide written before admission.

The Three Cost Layers Explained One by One

The road to a National Law University has three parts: the CLAT application fee, NLU college tuition, and entrance coaching. Keep each one in its own budget line so that none of them gets lost in the total.

Layer 1: The entrance exam fee

The CLAT 2027 exam fee is Rs 4,000 for general, OBC, PwD and NRI candidates. It is Rs 3,500 for SC, ST and BPL candidates. The fee is paid online and is non refundable, so a wrong category selection or a change of mind after payment will not get the money back. Check your eligibility before you pay.

Layer 2: NLU college tuition

College tuition is a separate layer from the exam fee. The sources do not give an NLU Delhi tuition amount, so you need the official NLU Delhi fee schedule for the year you are joining. Ask for the per year figure and then multiply it across the course, adding any hostel, admission or other charges that the notice lists. Do not estimate this layer from the exam fee.

Layer 3: Coaching

Coaching is optional, but many students take it, so it should be on the plan. Indicative CLAT coaching fees in Delhi NCR are Rs 85,000 to Rs 1,50,000 for a one year classroom programme and Rs 1,40,000 to Rs 2,25,000 for a two year foundation batch. These are coaching fees only, not NLU college fees. You can compare the coaching options on CLAT & AILET Coaching Fees in Delhi NCR 2027 | Clat Coaching before deciding. The coaching institute also states that it offers scholarships of up to 100 percent in its own programmes. The sources do not show that this applies to NLU Delhi college fees, so do not count it as a concession on tuition.

How SC Candidates Should Read the CLAT Exam Fee

The difference between the two exam fees is small. The general fee is Rs 4,000 and the SC fee is Rs 3,500, a gap of Rs 500. For an SC candidate, that Rs 500 is saved on the application only. It does not reduce college tuition or coaching, and the sources do not say that it does.

Treat the exam fee as the first layer, not the whole plan. A family that sees Rs 3,500 and stops there will underestimate the cost. For a fuller view of what coaching includes and how the fees are structured, read CLAT Coaching in Delhi Fees | Course Fees & Admission | Clat Coaching, which sets out the coaching options in more detail.

Choosing Between the CLAT and AILET Routes

This is the decision that changes the whole budget, so make it early. NLU Delhi runs its own exam, AILET. It is the only route into NLU Delhi, and it does not accept CLAT scores. A strong CLAT rank therefore does not open the NLU Delhi door. NLU Delhi also has around 120 BA LLB seats, which makes the AILET route a narrow one.

AILET 2027 has 150 questions in 120 minutes. Logical Reasoning carries 70 questions, English Language carries 50, and Current Affairs and GK carry 30. A correct answer earns plus 1 and a wrong answer loses minus 0.25. A student who scores weakly in Logical Reasoning, the largest section, will lose the NLU Delhi route even if their CLAT preparation was strong. Choose the exam by your strengths, not by habit.

Common Mistakes and How to Avoid Them

Treating coaching as college fees

Families often merge the coaching bill and the college bill into one figure. They are different costs, paid at different times, to different bodies. Fix this by writing a separate line for each of the three layers. Mark the coaching line as optional, so you can see the cost with and without it.
