If you are in Karnal and still deciding which law entrance to sit, the short answer is that
Haryana students realistically choose between CLAT for the national law universities, PU CET (UG) Law for
Panjab University, and AILET for NLU Delhi, with SLAT as a private-university option and the PU three-year LLB route for graduates.
Most of that preparation overlaps, so one batch at Surya Law Academy (Sector 25-D, Chandigarh, 5 minutes from Panjab University) covers
several exams at once. Compare the options below, then open the exam-specific page for your city. Call 8591850950 or WhatsApp to talk it through.

Where a Karnal Student Can Actually Study Law
Haryana students sit between two options that are both realistic: the national law universities through CLAT, and Panjab University in Chandigarh, which is a short trip for anyone in the Ambala, Panchkula or Kurukshetra belt.
Dr. B. R. Ambedkar National Law University, Sonipat
The national law university located in Haryana. Admission is through CLAT.
Panjab University (UILS), Chandigarh
Five-year BA LLB through PU CET (UG) Law. Practical for much of northern Haryana.
Maharshi Dayanand University Rohtak and Kurukshetra University
State university law departments, each with its own admission process.
✓ The realistic route for Haryana students:
CLAT is the primary route to the national law universities, with PU CET Law added as a strong second option. Most Haryana students in our batches prepare for both together.

“As a student I know the burden of entrance exams but at Surya Law Academy the pressure is relieved. Talking about the teachers, they are the best.... all my queries are welcomed and answered positively. If someone missed a class, the topic is repeated to prevent loss of student. One can easily approach the teachers. The classroom provides a congenial environment for studying with best facilities and the books... the BOOKS are just awesome!! Power packed with latest question papers, mostly asked questions and what not! It's a lifetime experience to study at Surya Law Academy and I am sure that with the help of SLA's guidance, i will crack the exams.. Thank you Surya Sir and Megha Mam, hope you prosper even more and be the sunshine in the life of millions!!😁😁”

Students from Karnal (130 km from SLA, 2 hrs by bus) join classroom or live online batches. Haryana students pair CLAT, AILET and PU CET Law in the same cycle.
Which law entrance exam should a Karnal student target?
It depends on where you want to study. CLAT is the primary route to the national law universities, with PU CET Law added as a strong second option. Most Haryana students in our batches prepare for both together. Surya Law Academy coaches for CLAT, AILET, PU CET (UG) Law, the PU three-year LLB and SLAT, so you do not have to decide before you join.
Can I prepare for CLAT and PU CET Law at the same time?
Yes, and most of our students from Karnal do exactly that. The two exams share most of their syllabus, so one batch covers both and you keep more than one realistic shot at a good law school.
Is there a law university in Haryana?
Yes. Dr. B. R. Ambedkar National Law University in Sonipat is a national law university inside Haryana and admits through CLAT. Panjab University in Chandigarh is also within reach for much of northern Haryana.
Do I have to move to Chandigarh to prepare for a law entrance from Karnal?
No. Karnal is 130 km from SLA, about 2 hrs by bus from the academy. Students within commuting distance attend the Sector 25-D centre, and everyone else joins the live online batch with the same faculty and hardcopy material delivered to their city. Hostel and PG assistance is available if you do want to shift.
