Symbiosis Law Schools are currently in the advanced stages of their 2026 selection process following the SLAT results in January. Multiple campuses, including Pune and Noida, are releasing their second and third merit lists throughout February and March. The selection criteria involve a 70:30 weightage between the entrance score and Personal Interaction (PI). This report details the upcoming payment deadlines and the final admission windows for law aspirants.

The selection cycle for the Symbiosis Law Admission Test (SLAT 2026) is moving into its final rounds as February concludes. Symbiosis International University (SIU) has successfully conducted the Personal Interaction (PI) rounds across its various campuses in Pune, Noida, Hyderabad, and Nagpur. As the first and second merit lists have already been processed, the focus for March 2026 is on the publication of the third merit lists and the final seat occupancy for the B.A.LL.B. and B.B.A.LL.B. programmes.
Selection Weightage and Merit Lists
The 2026 admission process is defined by a composite score where the entrance test carries 70% weightage and the Personal Interaction carries 30%. Candidates who participated in the PI rounds earlier this month are now awaiting the final confirmation of their ranks in the subsequent lists.
- SLS Noida is scheduled to open its third merit list on March 12, 2026, for those who remain on the waiting list following the February cycles.
- SLS Hyderabad will close its final payment window for the second merit list on March 6, with a third list expected shortly thereafter if vacancies persist.
- Aspirants must check their individual campus portals to ensure their SLAT 2026 scorecard is correctly linked to their application ID.
Final Admission Windows and Deadlines
The selection process at Symbiosis is highly time-sensitive, with most campuses requiring fee payments within seven days of the list publication. Candidates who miss these windows will forfeit their eligibility, and the seat will be offered to the next individual in order of merit.
