Eligibility
Admission to the Diploma in Insurance Risk Management at National Law University - [NLU], Jodhpur is intended for candidates who already hold a recognised graduate degree, since the programme is a postgraduate-level diploma rather than an entry-level course. Universities running this kind of specialised diploma typically admit students either through their own entrance process or through a merit list built on the qualifying degree, and National Law University - [NLU] decides which route applies and what the minimum eligibility marks are for a given session. Because this criteria, along with the cut-off, is set fresh every year, applicants should confirm the current admission notice with the university rather than assume last year's rule still applies.
