It is a good college with moderate infrastructure and great facilities.
Placements: Some students of our college get placed depending on their rank. The highest salary package is 6 LPA to 7 LPA. Several students get internships under various prominent lawyers in the city. The salary package offered is great. Top roles offered are advocate, corporate lawyer, and litigation.
Infrastructure: Our college has good classrooms and great infrastructure. The quality of food is developing. It provides training for sports and games. All the qualities are good but the infrastructure could be more developed. Facilities provided in our college are good.
Faculty: Teachers in our college are helpful and qualified. The course curriculum prescribed by KSLU makes students aware of the industry. Exams are easy but students must prepare well and make notes.
Other: Our college organises many fests and extracurricular activities. Infrastructure could be improved. The best thing about our college is teaching methods and the way of explanation is good.

It is a decent private college of law.
Placements: Final year students are eligible for placement. So many law firms and other companies visited our college. After getting my degree, I am planning to get coaching for the UPSC exam. College allows each student to be a particular advocate for interns. Students even intern at NGO and police station.
Infrastructure: Library is good. There are books on our subject. But sometimes there are fewer copies so the other students will not get books. Except for that library, the facility is the best. There is an internet facility. There is the availability of previous year question papers. Classroom is very good. It has sufficient numbers of desks and fans. There is one projector in each class. Sports are very supported in our college, and there is a yoga facility too. NSS, student union, etc., are the groups run by students for students.
Faculty: We have 28+ lecturers in our college. In my class, there are 60 students, in another section there are 60 students. Recently, 3 of our lecturers got doctorates. A few lecturers are working on their projects. Most teachers use PPT as it helps us very much. They even give proper materials and reference books. Our college comes under Karnataka State Law University. It is very tough to pass. One cannot pass here without proper hard work. But if we study well, then we can clear.
