NLSIU- Best Law College in INDIA

Placements: The placements offered by NLSIU are arguably the best in the country for any Law College. Corporate law firms like Amarchand Mangaldas, AZ&B and Trilegal. Even companies like Tata Steel hire a lot from NLSIU. The median salary for 2024 was 20 lakh and the highest was 30 lakh. They have nearly 100% placement rate.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure in the university are world class. All classes are equipped with plug points, projectors and boards. Wi-Fi is available in every corner of the university campus. The library is the largest and best law library in INDIA, with over 55,000 books. There are currently two academic blocks and a third one was commissioned recently. The food is really good but the hostels are a little old with a few students being given off campus residence this year.

Faculty: NLSIU has been the best law college in INDIA, 8 years running, largely due to it's excellent curriculum. The trimester system, unique to NLSIU, makes the curriculum rigorous and the best in the country. The faculty too are world class, with all of them being experienced, knowledgeable and the best in their fields. The exams too are pretty tough with the highest marks awarded in the finals being about 42 out of 60. It is required of all students to maintain a C+ grade or about 45% to pass a semester.

Other: Events take place in NLSIU on almost a weekly basis except during exam season. The Student Body Association (SBA) is very active and organises fests, luncheons, club dinners and activities regularly. The crowd at NLSIU, is but virtue of its CLAT cutoff, some of the smartest in the country. You will find people from all parts of the country and from all walks of life. The best thing about the curriculum at NLSIU, is a CCE pattern, Continuous Cumulative Evaluation Pattern, which makes exams and assessments a regular aspect with a lot of support material from seniors and faculty.

Satisfied with the overall curriculum, really good infrastructure and facilities food quality is ok.

Placements: A huge number of students received their degree at the 2024 convocation, a lot of high tech companies recruit the students hopefully. Still in 1st year I am figuring our the roles offered in my course and internships that we can get. In first year we're expected to intern under NGOs and provide social service.

Infrastructure: They have a 23 acres campus with a lot of space for students to study, hangout and conduct events in. They have an amphitheatre where most of the events take place. A notable feature is the state-of-art library where most of the students study and faculty incharges take doubts etc. Some hostels are outdated though while some are newly made. Mess food is mostly inedible.

Faculty: The faculty is well educated though not sure if they're cut for being teachers. However, the course curriculum is made keeping law and BA subjects in mind and it makes the students industry ready. Most of the subjects are based on practical knowledge. Here, they follow a Socratic method of teaching which is very different from the kind of teaching in school.

Other: Since they are not covered well by the State, NLSIU fees has conveniently increased throughout the years but they do not fail to provide adequate amount of facilities for the same. They have a huge library, ample space for working and hanging out and various other spots to conduct events and programs. Campus life is very interesting, they have a gym, basketball court, football field etc. Students can join various committees to make their campus life lively. Fests and events go on throughout the trimesters and students are free to help organize or participate in them.

Review of National Law School of India University, Bangalore.

Placements: In the previous year, almost all students who attended for placements received job offers. The majority of students received PPOs in their fourth year. The average salary package offered in the previous year was 12 LPA. Recruiters are law firms like Luthra and Luthra, Khaitan and Co., etc.

Infrastructure: It's a 23-acre campus. It is quite small if you compare it to engineering colleges. Most of the facilities are available here. The whole campus is Wi-Fi enabled, so you don't need to worry about data limits. In some places, the connectivity is not good. Mess food is quite good on some days, particularly breakfast.

Faculty: If you think college is not only about studies and extracurricular activities, then you won't like NLS. The whole trimester is jammed up with projects, vivas, moots, negos, exams, etc. It's quite hectic at times. After a while, you get used to it.

Other: Sometimes, extracurricular activities are conducted.

Excellent faculty with good infrastructure .

Placements: 100% placement with record of 98 job offers over 40 students only. The average package is 17L to 20L p. a right now. Top tier firms like SAM, CAM, trilegal and other offers job for legal associates for their firm in particular fields in which students are interested. Others go for higher studies or for litigation also.

Infrastructure: We have a good infrastructure for 1000 people because of being a top university in India we don't have much seats and our campus is medium but beautiful eco-friendly where everyone can live there life. The quality of foods manageable and other facilities are also good which we can't compare.

Faculty: Excellent professors from law field and the way of teaching is beyond expectations. They are graduated from top universities so they know how to teach in top college. Everyone is reachable for any doubt and they explain in better way anywhere even outside classrooms also.

Decent return of investment.

Placements: Placements for our course are good. Almost all the students get placed. The highest package in 2021 for our course was somewhere around 16 lakhs per annum and the average was 10 lakhs per annum. Companies such as Bajaj Allianz, DLF Limited, Reliance Power, SEBI, SBI Tata Motors and law firms such as Luthra & Luthra Partners, AZB Partners, Amarchand and Mangaldas, etc. provided jobs.

Infrastructure: The library at the campus has a rich collection of reading material for both students as well as faculty members. For students who are into sports, the university has indoor and outdoor sports facilities. A well established gym, cafeteria, modern classrooms, auditorium, medical centre etc. are there. The campus has Wi-Fi connectivity. The hostel fee for the span of five years was 58k which is very cheap. We have 4 hostels for boys which have 24x7 water and laundry facility available.

Faculty: The course curriculum is well designed. We were given the course outline at the beginning of the course. The faculty members for most of the subjects are quite good. Apart from that, there are several courses regularly offered by an expert in the field. This helps us in giving practical knowledge apart from theoretical one.
