They must first understand the options of Freeze, Float, and Exit. After being given a seat, students can choose from the above options.

• By choosing the ‘Exit’ option, students can withdraw from CLAT counselling procedure if they do want not to participate.
• If a student is satisfied with their seat and would like to be admitted to the designated NLU, they can choose the 'Freeze' option.
