As per age criteria, you are not eligible for LLB course.

If you have completed 12th standard from any stream with above 50% marks from a recognized board then you are eligible to attend CLAT exam for admission in Under graduate course.

The candidate age should not be more than 20 Years for under graduate course.

For LLB there is an entrance exam held every year named CLAT if your are thinking in with that test than you are not applicable as they requires age less than 20 years.
Besides that you have got a chance to take admission now on the basis of direct admission which requires two things one is your 12 standard marks and more important role that can play in your case is that your relation with that college if someone you know who can make things easy for you over there than it can save your lots of money.
Because the easiest way is to go for government colleges but this possible through entrance exam only.
So you have got a chance of direct admission you can think about it.

Minimum eligibility criteria to apply for admission in LLB Course :

Candidate should have passed class 12th in any discipline from a recognized board with minimum 45% marks and 40% marks for SC/ST category candidates.

Age of the candidate should not be more than 20 years for UR and OBC and 22 years for SC/ST category candidates.

You have crossed the age of 22 years that is why you are not eligible to apply for admission in this course but there are some colleges which offers LLB course for candidates older in age so do not worry because you are eligible.

But there is a particular condition that a candidate applying for admission in LLB course should be graduate in any discipline from a recognized university so if you have a bachelor's degree then you can apply for LLB course at any stage of your age but you have not got the graduation degree.

The only way to get admission in LLB course for you, is that you need to apply for a bachelor's degree like BA/ B.Sc/ B.Com/ BCA/ BBA etc. and complete it and when it completes then you need to find a better college/ institute/ university to apply for admission in LLB course and get your degree.

I have listed names of some institutes/ colleges/ universities offers LLB course on graduation level :

>> Cochin University for Science and Technology
>> Jamia Milia University
>> Barkatullah University - Bhopal
>> National university of Advanced Legal Studies
>> University of Calcutta
>> Rajiv Gandhi National University of Law
>> Allahabad University
>> Bharthi Vidhyapeeth Institute

I am really sorry to say this you are not eligible to apply for LLB Undergraduate program when consider your age limits.For the details regarding the eligibility criteria you need to have a look on the below limits.

Eligibility criteria for LLB Under graduate program :


1.You should complete 10+2 with minimum 45% of marks from the recognized university for Gen and OBC candidates.

2.There is a percentage relaxation of 5% for the SC/ST candidates(i.e., 40%)

3.Maximum Age should be : 20 years

4.But you need to give an exam called " CLAT " for LLB Course.


So you don't have eligibility when we take your information into the consideration.

LLB stands for Bachelor legislative law and after pursuing which one heads toward becoming a lawyer which is one of the most administrative post .

The LLB course are offered in two ways one way is of 3 years course for student having done their graduation and the other way is of 5 years course for student having done their senior secondary education .

Yes you are definitely eligible for the same course of 5 years having done your 12th and being 27 years old as there is no age limit for the same course .

But your 12th standard degree must be from a recognized school/college affiliated to recognized board .

Also for pursuing this course from top law colleges you should look to compete for Common Law Admission Test ( CLAT ) .Otherwise you can do the same course from any other private college offering the same course .

Its very good that you want to relive the interest that u had.
Since you have mainly asked about the age criteria and hence we will be keeping our discussion limited to that only.

According to the bar council of India, now there is no upper limit of age for doing the LLB course.
Earlier it was 30 years but now that rule has been abolished.

So, you have a very good opportunity to complete your LLB.

Other qualifications regarding the same course is just intermediate. if you have completed intermediate then you are eligible as per the educational qualification.

Sorry to say, You are not eligible.
