When we talk about the qualifying criteria, the question hits our minds about the disqualification stances, too, and we get confused about the whole thing if we don't find any relevant and clear information regarding which candidates are considered unfit to apply for the SLAT and don't sit fair and square in the parameters of SLAT Eligibility.

  • You need to have a clean mark sheet without any red marks/back on the paper, and you must have cleared your 12th in your 1st attempt. 
  • Any Individual who is pursuing their 12th from Open Boards of Schooling is not considered eligible for the SLAT Exam and is disqualified according to the SLAT Eligibility Criteria.
