Campus is live and vibrant, academics are mediocrity, but the library and faculty are good.

Placements: Placements are nil. Information on the highest and lowest packages available. Recruiters are nil as there are no campus placements. Internships are mandatory for course completion. Internships are widely accepted. Information on top roles offered is available.

Infrastructure: Even though it is a heritage structure in the heart of the city, the infrastructure is mediocre and adequate. Wi-Fi has nil usage. However, an excellent library needs particular mention. Hostels are nearby, separately for boys and girls, but admit a limited number of students, which is highly sufficient. The college canteen is good, and the hostel mess is average.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable and are appointed by the Government of Kerala through competitive evaluation. The teaching quality is good. The curriculum is not up-to-date, so it is not industry-ready. Semester exams are easy. However, the pass percentage is around 75%.

A place where you learn to live.

Placements: GLCE doesn't have a proper structure when it comes to campus placement. Almost all the students try to get internships and placements from the nearby courts, as there is the Kerala High Court and the Ernakulam District Court nearby. Students also get job offers from the alumni of the college. Almost 99% of the students get into good offices and become the best of the lawyers. Many students try for the UGC, and some even go for the judicial exams.

Infrastructure: The college holds historical importance in Kochi as it was the first legislative assembly of Kerala and was later turned into a college. It is 150 years old, and the central assembly hall is a witness to many generations of lawyers and judges. The central assembly hall, as old as it is, still stands due to the maintenance done by the government. There is a Wi-Fi system available for all the students inside the classrooms. We have a research cell and a library that has a huge number of books, both old and new.

Faculty: The teachers are all great scholars. Both the permanent and the temporary faculty are really helpful and supportive of the students. The syllabus was a bit outdated, but now it is in the process of being updated. Even the new BNS and other laws are being included in the new curriculum.

Other: I chose this course mainly because of the college background and history. The campus provides us with exposure to the real world and helps us prepare for what lies ahead in the future as a lawyer. The college conducts several national seminars, moots, and trial advocacy programs, and this will improve in the future. Students get to meet different eminent personalities from all across India because of these programs.

A vibrant college with a rich heritage which has produced many accomplished alumni.

Placements: We do not have a specific placement cell as of now; it may be established in the near future as many clubs are up and coming as of now. A prominent one as of now is the research club, where a lot of students, including first-year students, had the opportunity to publish research papers held by various national law universities. But many of the sitting high court judges are from this college, as are many important senior lawyers.

Infrastructure: The college is equipped with fast network Wi-Fi, classrooms are good enough and fit with projectors, and a lift is also under construction to make the college more friendly for people with disabilities. The library is filled with books, a lot of case papers and case files from the Supreme Court. The library has a lot of tables and chairs to refer to the books and study in pace. canteen is present in the college and provides good lunch and snacks. Sports and games happen mostly in the after-hours of the college; many students play football, play badminton in the court, some go for table tennis, some can be seen playing carrom, etc.

Faculty: The teachers are all qualified and top-of-the-line, with the majority of them having a Ph.D. in their respective subjects, are very helpful and can be reached 24/7. The course curriculum is relevant, in line with the time and makes the students industry-ready. The semester exams are not very difficult but may take some time to commence due to delays.

Our college provides good faculty members, moderate infrastructure, and few placements.

Placements: No companies or firms directly recruit students through campus placements. Our college has an efficiently working CDPC, career development, and placement cell which works to increase the chance of students getting placed in various firms. It conducts various webinars and informative sessions and also updates placement opportunities.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of this college is average. There is a heritage building. The Central Assembly Hall is about 150 years old where moot competitions are held. There is a seminar hall and enough classrooms but they are not smart classes. There is a volleyball court, a badminton court, and a small open ground for sports practices. We also have a canteen. Hostels are available for both men and women. Wi-Fi is available in the college and also at the hostels.

Faculty: Faculty members are well-qualified, and their classes are great. They often help us with extracurricular activities like moot competitions and MUNs. The university exams are much delayed causing a great deal of difficulty for students to complete their course in time. The syllabus is outdated, and the revision for the same is under consideration.

Other: We have a good campus life. There are vast opportunities for the students to enhance their talents and potential but one has to take it up on their own initiative and should work hard. No one will force you to do anything.

Dissatisfied with infrastructural facilities. College failed to provide enough classrooms.

Placements: Placement opportunities are less. Our college has a placement cell which is inactive. Most of the students lack support from campus for placement and they finds placements by themselves. Graduates earn minimum 12000 per month in firms but those who are in reputed legal firms works for a heavy package. Internship opportunities and job vacancies are notified through career portal which is managed by senior students.

Infrastructure: Classrooms are inadequate. Exam hall and heritage building is used as classrooms. Library is excellent providing widw varieties of books, legal journals, multiling newspapers and e-journals. High-speed Wi-Fi is ensured everywhere in campus. Hostel facilities are available to both men and women near campus but seats are limited to only a few number of students. Canteen is open in working days. Quality foods are provided at cheap rate. Vegetarian and non-vegetarian food is made available. Juice, Ice cream is also available which are worthy.

Faculty: Teachers are well qualified and efficient. Classes are going regular. Semester exams are neither easy nor difficult. Our college has a better result where majority of students are passed in the exams. But exams are irregular for new batches. Results are declared very late and supplymentary exams are pending for the batches which makes students difficult to clear the arrears.

Other: Arts and Sports club is active and efficient. All events are notifies in our college and ensures maximum participation of students. Our college has outstanding performance arts fest and competitions. Football, badminton competitions are eventually held in our campus. The inter college events are notified in our campus.

I am not satisfied with its infrastructural facilities. The fee is low but teachers are good.

Placements: Placements cell is very poor and is currently not functioning well. Earlier the placements cell used to function better and a lot of students used to get placed but now it is very much different. The percentage of students getting placed is very low and top firms do not have an interest in recruiting from our college.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is very limited and does not provide enough facilities for the students. The library is one of the best in the city and has such a wide collection of books. The hostel infrastructure is not good, with limited rooms and dysfunctional water systems, and electricity failures. The canteen is fine, but the food is not good. There is no support for any kinds of sports activities from this college. There is not even a physical education department.

Faculty: Teachers are all highly qualified, but they lack regular classes. The course curriculum should be revamped to help students attain better practical experience. The exams are not at all conducted on time and this university is always lagging in conducting exams. But the students are all talented and never fail to bring home the top ranks in university exams.
