Disappointment with the administration of the college.

Placements: In the current batch, we saw a 34% placement rate with 12 PPOs. The highest package was 90 lakhs, while the lowest was 10 lakhs. The top law firms in India come to the college for placements. There are Rhodes Scholars in our college, and some students are placed as researchers at the Supreme Court.

Infrastructure: The facilities provided in the Academic Block are good, but the hostel facilities are lacking. Sometimes the AC might leak, and there can be issues with the water cooler. The campus has many cats and dogs, which affects hygiene. The quality of food is okay, but the sports and games facilities are inadequate.

Faculty: Some teachers are really good and qualified, while others are not. The curriculum of the course is relevant. The difficulty level of the semester exams has increased in this college, and now a student receives an 'O' if they score above 90, while the pass percentage is 50.

Other: I chose this course because law interests me; it helps me understand where I will be standing in the next few years, depending on the laws of the country. However, this college doesn't hold many fests.

It is a good college and has good value for money.

Placements: In our college, almost all students are placed. The highest salary package offered is 20 LPA and the lowest salary package offered is 12 LPA. Foreign firms come to the campus for recruitment. They offered a salary package worth more than 40 LPA.

Infrastructure: We have air-conditioned classrooms. The hostel rooms have air conditioning. There is a paucity of rooms in the hostels currently, but the college administration has assured us that they are working on the same and new hostel buildings will be constructed soon.

Faculty: Our college teachers are excellent. Our college provides us with the best law faculty members in India. The course curriculum is relevant, and it makes students industry-ready. The semester exams are not easy but most students pass them.

Everything in the college is awesome, and I highly recommend it.

Placements: The college provides top-quality education in all courses because there are India's best teachers. You'll get a chance to learn from them. 80% of students get internships. The highest package offered is around 20 LPA, and the lowest package is around 4.5 LPA, and the average package is around 7 LPA from the top judicial public and private firms in India.

Infrastructure: There are lots of facilities in the hostel. I suggest everyone take admission here. The college has good facilities and services like Wi-Fi, labs, library, rooms, and top-quality food. Students feel like they are at their home.

Faculty: Students get top-quality education here because teachers are highly qualified and experienced. They are very helpful and motivate the students. They help students in every situation. In almost every course, students get high packages. I would say this college provides a bright future to its students. Semester exams are not much easy, but the quality of knowledge students get helps them pass easily. The passing percentage is 33%.

Other: As I am interested in becoming a good lawyer, I went to this college. This course gives me satisfaction and provides a going future in the judicial area, but I think this course is a bit more time taking than usual, so they need to improve this. All other facilities are top-notch.

Review of NLU Delhi (NLUD) - National Law University.

Placements: This year's cutoff was 96.5% or more. The highest salary package offered is 16 LPA, the median salary package offered is 9 LPA, and the minimum salary package offered is 6 LPA or 7 LPA. Companies depend on your field in LL.B. at Least 87% is required for internship and it is not fixed. The top roles offered are judge and experience and victory of a lawyer.

Infrastructure: Everything is good including all facilities like Wi-Fi on the whole campus and there are digital classrooms. My friend lives at the hostel and the hostel facilities are good including a clean mess with good quality food. Sports are also there and students who are from sports quota get priority there.

Faculty: Lecturers in our college are very kind to students. But students misbehave with them and I don't know the reason for it. No doubt teachers are very helpful and kind. They are qualified in many fields. As the Indian education system doesn't have practicality, I can't say that it will make students industry-ready because experience speaks. All you need to do is get into the industry from a small level.

Other: I chose this course because of my interest in law. Events like the annual fest and many more are held in this college.

Review of NLU Delhi (NLUD) - National Law University.

Placements: Placements take place through a process known as Day-0 in which students are interviewed by corporation firms. Students have a 100% of placement rate for many years. The recruiting companies range from Magic Circle firms to 2nd and 3rd tier Law Firms. Foreign firms usually hire through vacation schemes and their procedures.

Infrastructure: Our library and classrooms are brilliant. There is a lot of space available. Recently, our campus has become denser due to NCR reservations. Wi-Fi quality is down, but it is still good. The food is fine. Sports facilities are also improved gradually.

Faculty: Teachers are good and helpful. As someone who has special needs in the past, the teachers have been very supportive of them. The curriculum is interesting and has proved useful in practice whenever I have taken internships. This college semester is demanding but there are plenty of resources to help students, and the administration is sensitive and understanding.

Highly experienced faculty members.

Placements: NLU provides good placement offers and not only placement offers but the university opens the doors of various opportunities for lawyers. For the 2019 batch, the college was able to maintain the offer package of 15 LPA which is in term was the highest in 2019 for our university and the average salary offer was around 7 LPA. Trilegal, OYO, Steel Authority of India Limited, Khaitan & Co. , etc. Are the names of the few companies and firms that took part in the college placement drive.

Infrastructure: The classrooms were very good and the voice was also properly audible to every corner of the class. The auditorium of the university is big and has a seating capacity of more than 600 people. The college library which is T. P. S Chawla Library, has more than 35000 books and the library also has a subscription to lots of online databases from Oxford to Cambridge University, the library is a pool of knowledge. The university also offers sports facilities. The hostel building is very nicely maintained and the hostel also has indoor games facilities. The rooms are fully furnished and the hostel hygiene is very well maintained.

Faculty: Most of the faculty members are permanent and good, and coming from a strong background in law considering they rejected job offers from some highly reputed law firms as they used to tell us. The teaching methodology of all the faculty members is unique and appealing which makes the daunting task of learning very easy.
