Students appearing for AU LAT 2026 counselling must carry original documents along with two sets of self-attested photocopies to the Allahabad University campus on the day of document verification.

Allahabad University conducts counselling for admission to its 5-year BA LLB and 3-year LLB programmes based on AU LAT 2026 merit. The document verification round is a mandatory step before final seat allotment. Carrying all required documents without gaps ensures your admission is not held up on counselling day.

  • Original documents are mandatory — photocopies alone are not accepted.
  • Bring at least two self-attested photocopies of every document.
  • Category certificates must be issued by a competent authority and be current.
  • Students without a valid AU LAT 2026 rank card are not eligible for counselling.

How to Prepare Your Documents

Follow these steps to avoid last-minute problems on AU LAT 2026 counselling day:

  1. Collect all originals in advance — confirm that original certificates are with you and not held at any institution. Request their return from previous colleges well before the counselling date.
  2. Make self-attested photocopies — sign across each photocopy with your name and date to self-attest. Carry at least two complete sets of every document.
  3. Renew category certificates if needed — OBC-NCL certificates must be issued in FY 2025-26. Obtain a fresh certificate from the Tehsildar if yours is older.
  4. Print AU LAT 2026 documents — download and print your rank card and admit card from allduniv.ac.in before the counselling date.
  5. Arrange photographs — carry at least 6 recent passport-size photographs with a white background. Keep a few extras as a buffer.
  6. Organise with a labelled folder — arrange all documents in checklist order. A well-organised folder prevents missing documents at the verification desk.

AU LAT 2026 Counselling Process

The AU LAT 2026 counselling is conducted by the University of Allahabad at its Prayagraj campus. Students are called in order of merit rank. The process covers document verification, eligibility check, programme selection, and seat allotment.

  1. Reporting at the venue — arrive at the designated hall with all documents. Check the reporting schedule on the official website for your rank range and reporting time.
  2. Document verification — university officials cross-check originals against your application data. A mismatch or missing document may result in cancellation of your counselling slot.
  3. Eligibility confirmation — your Class 12 or graduation percentage is verified to confirm you meet the minimum cut-off for BA LLB or LLB respectively.
  4. Programme selection — after verification, you indicate your programme preference (BA LLB or LLB) based on your eligibility and availability of seats.
  5. Seat allotment and fee payment — a seat is allotted based on merit and availability. You pay the admission fee at the designated counter to secure your seat.
  6. Collection of allotment letter — collect the official seat allotment letter before leaving the campus and retain it for future reference.
