<p>Yes, you can apply for an LL.B. program. Most universities in India require a bachelor’s degree for admission into a 3-year LL.B. program, but if you are considering a 5-year integrated LL.B. program (such as BA LL.B. or BBA LL.B.), your 10+2 marks will be considered.</p><p>For the 5-year LL.B. program, eligibility criteria usually require at least 45%-50% in 10+2 (varies by university and category). Some universities conduct entrance exams like CLAT, AILET, or LSAT India, while others offer direct admission based on merit.</p>

<p><strong>There is no upper age limit for pursuing LLB</strong>, but the prerequisite for applying to a three-year undergraduate program in law is a graduation degree from a recognised Indian university or its international equivalent.<br><br>Yes, you can pursue an LLB (Bachelor of Laws) at 45 years old. Many universities and law schools welcome mature students, and your life experience can be an asset in your studies. Admission requirements vary by institution, so it's essential to check the specific criteria for the programs you're interested in. Additionally, consider how you will balance your studies with other commitments, and explore flexible study options, such as part-time or online programs, if needed.</p>

<p>Yes, you can apply for an <strong>LL.B. (Bachelor of Laws)</strong> program, even with a 55% score in your 10+2. The eligibility criteria for an LL.B. generally require candidates to have completed their higher secondary education (10+2) from a recognized board. Many law schools, including those offering the LL.B. program at Lovely Professional University (LPU), do not have strict age restrictions, making it possible for you to pursue law at 42.</p><p>However, it’s important to note that some universities or law schools may have a specific age limit or additional requirements. LPU, for example, offers a flexible and inclusive admission process that takes into account not just academic qualifications but also the applicant’s motivation and interest in pursuing law. As long as you meet the basic academic requirements (a pass in 10+2 with the required percentage), you should be eligible to apply for the program.</p><p>Additionally, LPU may conduct an entrance test or consider other criteria such as personal interviews for admission. It’s a good idea to check the specific requirements of the university you’re interested in or directly contact the admissions office for detailed information regarding the application process.</p>
