The candidates can either choose to freeze, float, or slide their choices during the CLAT 2025 counselling process. The freeze option in the CLAT Counselling process is for those students who are satisfied with their allotted seats. The candidates can choose to freeze the seat allocation process. By choosing this option the candidate confirms that they will not be participating further in any rounds of counselling.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Enroll first in the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.iquanta.in\/clat-coaching\">CLAT online course<\/a>&nbsp;by iQuanta&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-the-float-option-in-clat-counselling-2025\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_the_Float_option_in_CLAT_Counselling_2025\"><\/span><strong>What is the Float option in CLAT Counselling 2025?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The float option in the CLAT Counselling process is for those students who are dissatisfied with the allotted seat in any of the NLUs and choose to leave the seat in hopes of achieving a higher preference in any of the NLUs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The candidate who chooses to opt for the float option in CLAT can hold the seat until they have been allotted their preferred college. Once they have been allotted the seat they can move towards their new choices. To choose the float option the candidates must remember that they are required to pay the CLAT confirmation fee in the first, second and third rounds.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-the-slide-option-in-clat-counselling-2025\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_the_Slide_option_in_CLAT_Counselling_2025\"><\/span><strong>What is the Slide option in CLAT Counselling 2025?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There is also a third option available for the candidates. Candidates can choose the slide option. This option is beneficial for those candidates who wish to opt for a better course while retaining their seat at the same NLU. Suppose a candidate is offered BBA LLB at any particular NLU but wishes to take BA LLB they can choose the slide option. Only opt for this option if you are dissatisfied with your program and wish to stay at the same NLU.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/chat.whatsapp.com\/DrCZVGM4qW9Bdn85IVR3R9\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"159\" src=\"https:\/\/www.iquanta.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-03-17-at-11.47.24-AM-1024x159.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-45110\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.iquanta.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-03-17-at-11.47.24-AM-1024x159.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.iquanta.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-03-17-at-11.47.24-AM-300x47.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.iquanta.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-03-17-at-11.47.24-AM-768x119.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.iquanta.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-03-17-at-11.47.24-AM-1536x238.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.iquanta.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-03-17-at-11.47.24-AM-150x23.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.iquanta.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-03-17-at-11.47.24-AM-696x108.jpeg 696w, https:\/\/www.iquanta.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-03-17-at-11.47.24-AM-1068x166.jpeg 1068w, https:\/\/www.iquanta.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-03-17-at-11.47.24-AM.jpeg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-exit-option-in-clat-counselling-2025\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Exit_Option_in_CLAT_Counselling_2025\"><\/span><strong>Exit Option in CLAT Counselling 2025<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There is also a fourth option available for the students.
