Best experience at NLUJAA.
Placements: I have enrolled in B.A. LL.B. (HONS) programme. Our batch consists of a total of 65 students. The highest package is undisclosed and confidential, while the average package is of 8 LPA. Recently, reputed companies like Khaitan&Co, Oil India Ltd, etc. visited the campus. The university offers summer and winter breaks for the internship, while students apply for the internship independently. The university also assists those unable to secure an internship. Many students intern with firms like Dhir & Dhir Associates, Khurana & Khurana, Singhania and Co., etc.
Infrastructure: Every facility is provided to students, including Wi-Fi access and a library with thousands of books, which contribute to their academic growth and development. The hostel offers both double and single rooms. Students from the 3rd year onwards are allotted a single seater. There is 24/7 Wi-Fi availability. The mess maintains hygiene, and the food is also generally good, but health conscious individuals may face problems adjusting during the initial period. There are both physical and psychological facilities are for students.
Faculty: Some Faculty are excellent, with full dedication towards student progress. They are always ready to help students and resolve doubts effectively. This is because every faculty member here is well-qualified, and their teaching style is also commendable. The exams are challenging, with problem based questions that prepare students for competitive exams and enhance critical thinking. Teachers are strict, but on the other hand, they are fair. If students write properly, they won't fail them.
Other: I have chosen B.A. LL.B. (HONS) because of my interest in law and social issues. The best part is a combination of legal and social Science subjects, which build strong analytical and research skills. The campus is peaceful with regular fests, and active participation in moots, debates, and sports. The crowd is diverse and friendly. Scholarships are available for students with financial problems. Overall, the university provides a supportive academic environment.

Review of NLU Assam (NLUJAA) - National Law University And Judicial Academy.
Placements: The average package on my campus ranges above 5 LPA. The placement cell is increasing day by day, and students are getting placed at reputed firms like Trilegal, Khaitan, etc. The same is the case with internships, and it's prospering, so students are interning at various firms and courts.
Infrastructure: The campus infrastructure is great and well-maintained, providing serenity in front of small hills and a river. There are classes supported by digital screens for enhanced study, Wi-Fi support, etc. At the hostel, there are daily room service facilities.
Faculty: Faculty members are very supportive. Exams are based on problems designed to help students deal with critical situations. Semester exams through this pattern are getting tougher, and marks are less easy to score. The course curriculum prepares students for competitive exams.
Other: The reason for choosing this institution is due to its course structure. The course ingredients are interesting, ranging from humanities subjects to law subjects. Things like the introduction of many courses can be improved. The campus crowd is worth living, followed by fests and different sports competitions, which keep students feeling happier.

Decent faculty, learning opportunity, beautiful campus, and okay placements.
Placements: Well, the placement cell in the university is trying very hard and last year we were very good but the majority of the work is done by students themselves to grab these placements as most of the students here are focused on preparing for various government exams. The students preparing for judicial services have a unique benefit as the campus has the Assam Judicial Academy and students can interact with these luminaries.
Infrastructure: The campus's infrastructure is modern. All classrooms are equipped with modern facilities. Have smart devices and devices required to make the class a hybrid one. The lecture theatre is equipped with modern furniture and projectors. The walls and furniture are well maintained in all the hostels, classrooms and libraries.
Faculty: The core law teachers are decent but the faculty in the arts subjects are not that highly qualified. There is a political science professor who rarely conducts classes and when he does, students tend to know more than him. Good professors are leaving the university due to lack of promotions but law professors are decent but can be better. Exams are decently difficult and challenging enough. The curriculum is relevant.

You will meet amazing faculty and classmates in this college.
Placements: We can divide placement in two categories: on campus and off campus. Placement on campus is around 65 percent. Whereas placement off campus is 100 percent. Maximum package we got was 18 Lacs. However on an average people get around 6 to 8 Lacs. Almost 10 percent of each of our senior batch has been selected in PCS J exam, we have got rank 2 in Assam PCS J and Rank 1 in Nagaland PCS J. Many of them are also working in PSUs and MNCs.
Infrastructure: There is a Latin maxim 'Res ipsa loquitur', which means that 'things speak for itself'. You can just give a visit and know how sophisticated our campus is. We have amazing internet everywhere in college. The facility of charging socket is given for every seat of the classroom. We have centralised AC and interactive board and many such necessary and advance gadgets.
Faculty: Our faculty are really amazing. This is the best thing I like about my college. One can divide our faculty into two categories: Socratic style teaching and notes style teaching. The ratio of former to later is 9:1. Even those who do notes based teaching are very clear with their concept and can explain things nicely.

It is an excellent law school.
Placements: Students mostly go for litigation and judiciary. Corporate placements will be starting soon mostly in this year as it is a new college which is starting to grow exponentially. On a motivational note, our college started placements last year, and many students have made to big corporate firms through their internships or post-qualification.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college is the best which you can get in pan India in terms of hostels and academics as well. Hostels have mountain view on one side and river view on the other, and the hostel has a small lake in front of it. There is also the Brahmaputra which makes the experience mesmerising. Students can keep their private vehicle with them to commute in and outside the campus. City and parts of northeast nearby need no vouching at all. The college has the best library and excellent infrastructure to compete with.
Faculty: Some teachers here are very good and bonafide others, and it is the same situation in all law schools across the country. You will have to put your efforts to gain. There are the best teachers to guide.
Other: Fests, events, etc., are conducted in our college. NLUJAA is a wonderful experience.

I am satisfied with the infrastructure and perfect campus life. Placements are improving with time.
Placements: Our college has 60 students in each batch. Out of those 60 students, few opt for the judiciary, few opt for litigations, and few went for the corporate field. Those who opt for the corporate field got placed in good firms. The highest salary package offered is more than 12 LPA, and the average salary package offered is 6 LPA. Good companies like Khaitan, Cyril Amarchand, Fox Mandal, etc., visit our campus and recruit B.A. LL.B graduates. Roles offered depends on what you want to do, and you can join as a junior associate in a litigation firm. You can also work in a corporate firm, or you can attend the judiciary tests. Almost all students got an internship in good companies like Khaitan, Sandersons & Morgans, AZB & Partners, Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas, etc.
Infrastructure: The campus is Wi-Fi enabled. Classrooms are equipped with cutting edge technology. The college is fully air-conditioned. The college provides a library which remains open till midnight for students. The college provides a new 3 storey library coming up on our campus. The hostel is equipped with all the necessary facilities. Our rooms are huge than an average hostel room, and corridors and rooms are cleaned every single day by workers. Food served to the students is average, but we have a mess committee which takes care of the mess food and quality. We have ample opportunity for sports and games. The college provides a volleyball court, a football ground, a cricket ground, table tennis board, carrom board and a badminton court. The college is going to provide a new sporting complex in a few months. Medical facilities are always available on our campus. There is a nurse who always stays on our campus. An ambulance is available 24x7.
Faculty: Teachers in our college are helpful and qualified. We have a brand of teachers coming from different NLUs, Jamia, DU and other universities. The course curriculum is relevant. It prepares students for whichever field they choose later on in life, be it litigation, corporate or judiciary.
Other: I have chosen this course because I am always fascinated by the way a lawyer argued in the court and presented his arguments. The best thing about our course is you will get to learn the basic principles, rules, acts and laws by various organisations, governments and other big bodies of this planet work. I wish the college should provide more law subjects and should also include more law subjects in the 1st year so that students are well aware of whatever that's going on around them. Events are organised by the college in every month. The campus crowd is good, and you can find students every time on the campus. It is just 15 minutes away from the main city hub. The campus is in a relatively remote area, but the main city is not quite far. Gauhati University is very close to the campus. Students get a lot of opportunities to showcase their talents as there is ample opportunity.
