SLS Noida Admissions Advance After First Allotment Publication

As of February 18, 2026, Symbiosis Law School (SLS) Noida has advanced into the primary enrollment phase for its 5-year integrated law programs. Following the publication of the first merit list on February 12, shortlisted candidates are completing their fee confirmation and document verification. Aspirants for the BA LLB and BBA LLB batches must finalize their provisional admission by the February 19 deadline to secure their slots. The campus, known for its legal excellence, is preparing for the subsequent second merit list release scheduled for February 26.

The Symbiosis Law School (SLS), Noida, a constituent of Symbiosis International (Deemed University), is witnessing intensive administrative activity as the 2026-27 admission cycle progresses.

As of today, February 18, 2026, selected aspirants are in the final stages of confirming their seats for the prestigious BA LLB and BBA LLB programs. This official enrollment phase is critical, as any vacancy arising from non-payment will be carried forward to the second merit list. The university has already confirmed that the 2026 allotment logic is strictly based on the composite score of the SLAT entrance and the subsequent Personal Interaction (PI) rounds.
