No campus but the college life is very fun.

Placements: A good percentage of students are placed in our course. Top recruiting firms include Trilegal, Khaitan, etc. A good percentage of students got internships under various known advocates and top-tier firms. We have a separate internship and placement cell that is working very nicely.

Infrastructure: The college doesn't have its permanent campus yet. They've rented 4 floors of the MTNL building in Hiranandani, Powai. The hostel is 3-4 km away from the college in Kanjurmarg. Bus service from college to hostel and hostel to college is provided. Various facilities like Wi-Fi, libraries, reading rooms, and digital classrooms are available. The food and medical facilities are good but sports facilities are not on point.

Faculty: The teachers are well qualified, very helpful and knowledgeable. The course curriculum is very helpful and relevant and helps students get practical knowledge. It makes students industry-ready. The pass percentage is 45% and semester examinations are mildly difficult.

Other: The campus crowd is very nice. There are many extracurricular activities and various events.

Review of Maharashtra National Law University Mumbai.

Placements: Almost 75% of students get placed in our college. Many companies visit our college to recruit students. The placement cell of our college works hard to make sure we all get good placement opportunities.

Infrastructure: Our campus is rented from MNTL. Our college has 1 building. Our college does not provide a playground for sports.

Faculty: Faculty members are good and understandable. They have in-depth knowledge of their respective fields. The B.A. subject faculty members are not good, but the law subject faculty members are amazing. They are strict during academics.

Other: The fest named Abhikrams is held in our college in February every year which is good for our college atmosphere. Our college connectivity is good.

Review of Maharashtra National Law University Mumbai.

Placements: In a batch of 60, around 10 students got placed in tier 1 law firms with an average salary package of 16 LPA. The rest of them pursued tier 2/3 law firms, some opted for litigation and some went abroad to pursue LL.M. My peers have interned with some of the best law firms like AZB & Partners, Luthra and Luthra, Shardul Amarchand Mangaldas & Co., Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas, ALMT Legal, Khaitan & Co., J Sagar & Associates, Trilegal S & R Associates, Lakshmikumaran & Sridharan and many more.

Infrastructure: Our hostel is right opposite the college campus and both are placed squarely in the middle of Hiranandani Gardens. In Powai, we have the best shops and restaurants located within a walking distance, and everything is open till late. Food and medicines are delivered 24X7, and the nearest railway station is 10 minutes away. Overall, everything is available nearby.

Faculty: Like most NLUs, our faculty members must be/be pursuing a Ph.D. Since our college offers a B.A. LL.B. program we have 6 teachers who are qualified to teach arts subjects and 14 for the law subjects (to estimate the teacher to student ratio: our batch size is 60 and will now be increased to 100). Guest lectures are regularly given by several distinguished personalities in the legal field, both nationally and internationally.

Other: MNLU has signed MOUs with Berlin School of Economics and Law (BSEL) and Paris Nanterre University. It currently has an exchange program with BSEL.

The average salary ranged from 4-9 Lacs, the highest package was somewhere around 10 Lacs. The previous batches have had the capacity of 100 students but this year I. e, in 2021 the batch strength is around 130. The top recruiters were Khaitan and Co, ALMT Legal, AZB and partners, etc. The college has set up a placement cell and it has a database for internships so internships aren't hard to find. Companies like AZB and partners, Khaitan and Co, etc. Give internships to MNLU Mumbai. Almost 90% of people get internships. The roles offered while placements have been 'junior advocate', assistant, etc.

Infrastructure: The college doesn't really have a campus yet. The college and campus are opposite to each other. There is an MTNL building which is taken on rent and is being used as a hostel in Powai which is a great area. There is proper Wi-Fi connection, a library which closes at 10 in the night, a mess facility. The classrooms are air conditioned. There is a common room in the hostel for boys and girls which is air conditioned and open till 3AM the hostel has housekeeping staff as well. There are a lot of gaming areas around the college and some space to use as make do playing area. The mess provides good food. A doctor is assigned to come visit us, there is a counsellor as well. The college building has multiple floors 2nd floor has administration, 3rd floor has a cafeteria, 4th floor has 1st year classrooms, common rooms, music room, staff room etc., 6th floor has the library and conference room.

Faculty: The teachers are knowledgeable and professional. They are always ready to help the students. The course of B.A. LL.B. has a course curriculum which justifies the course in every way. It focuses on making the students industry ready. The exams are not very difficult and the passing percentage is usually above 98%. .

Other: I chose B.A. LL.B. because it is something that excites me. The crowd here is great, everyone is helpful and like a family. We hold fests and various competitions around the year for holistic development. There are scholarships provided as well. The campus is located in Hiranandani Garden which is a posh area and is clean and has all the amenities. We celebrate zest and abhikrama which are our fests. The college has a no ragging policy as well.

It is a good law college to explore avenues.

Placements: The batch size before our batch came in was small. Students who actually opted to get placed in several roles in law firms, and many have chosen litigation. Many students joined as associates at top law firms like SAM CAM, etc.

Infrastructure: It has a temporary campus, but the college tries to make our life better by providing us with fast Wi-Fi, neat and well-ventilated classrooms, which are adequately equipped to teach. The library is not all-encompassing, but we have many good titles in physical form and access to several important online databases like SCC Online, Taxmann, etc.

Faculty: The quality of faculty members varies from course to course, but all of them attempt to provide various resources to help understand the subjects better and make a conscious attempt to be fair towards the students. The course curriculum is very practical oriented, unlike normal law schools. In my own experience paying attention in class helps as notes available online are very theory-based. Semester exams are moderately difficult, and it is not too difficult to pass. It is difficult to get 8 GPA.
