It is a perfect place for your next 5 years.

Really impressed with facilities at such a low fees.

Placements: On an average, every year around 50-60 students sit for placements and almost all of them end up with an offer. Most of the students get PPOs. If one has a decent CV, he can be placed easily. Most of the studnets prepare for PCSj and UPSC. College has good track record in PcsJ selections.

Infrastructure: Best infrastructure facilities among all the NLUs. We have almost all the sports covered, including lawn Tennis and squash. We have a multi story gym which beats even some private chains. Best library among all the NLUs, we have been provided with digital access to all the major databases.

Faculty: Faculty is decent. One can find really qualified professor as well as some average faculty. Academics has a limited role. The college gives platform for everything. We don't have mid seems, hence a lot of time to research and prepare for civil services and judiciary exam.

Other: The college is very happening, there are fests all year round. Provides you with all the facilities and platform to excel.

It is one of the cheapest and the finest NLU in India.

Placements: Though the college has a fantastic placement cell from which they help students to find good opportunities around them. But the main issue is the culture of the college. Out of 100% students, only 20% sit for placements, and 80% of the students either prepare for the judiciary and other government exams. Therefore it is called a judiciary college. But if you are interested in the cooperate field this college provides you a good salary package of approximately 8 LPA - 9 LPA which is not bad to start your career. At last, everything depends upon your caliber how much you are able to take advantage of the college faculty and opportunities there.

Infrastructure: NLU Lucknow is among the best law colleges in India, and is spread in 42 acres of space. It has all the things which a law student can thinks of. There is a library with almost 35000 books. We also have a digitalised library with quite ample space to indulge in books. The college labs are equipped with high-speed internet for research purposes. Classrooms have air conditioners and smart projectors. Moving on to the hostel everyone gets their single room from the third year. Comparing to other NLUs the food mess served is above average. In sports, you won't be able to think of any sport which is not present. There are football, cricket, badminton, table tennis and some indoor games. It has an Olympic size swimming pool.

Faculty: Faculty members are well-read persons in their fields and they have high qualifications but it solely depends upon how much you can grasp from them and how much they are helping you. My personal experience says that to me some teachers were very supportive even if you don't do well they still try to help you to get better and become a good individual. On the other hand, some teachers are not bad. The teaching is average. They don't interact much hence less supportive.

Other: Being the cheapest NLU in India, it not only provides you with all the amenities but also enhances your skills in any way possible. The college arranges several moot competitions, debates competitions, literary fest, litigation, sports, etc. Equipped with communities it arranges several events such as Aavahan (sports and cultural fest), Manthan, LPL ( sort of Lohia version of IPL), Panenka ( football in the cage). You will experience a good college life here.

It has the best infrastructure and facilities.

Placements: There is no exact figure to tell about the placement scenario of the college. But, the college is immensely famous for the judiciary as most of the students coming here are interested in cracking the judicial services. This is the reason the college is also called the judges' factory. Coming to the part of internships, the internship and placement committee is there to look after the internships, but you can apply on your own to seek the internships.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college is very good. It is spread over the area of 42 acres in Ashiyana. The area comprises an administrative block, academic block, hostels, gym, swimming block, basketball court, volleyball court, football ground, badminton court and cafeteria. Overall, all the facilities are available in the college. The quality of the food is good. On some days, you might feel that there is nothing good to eat, then you can go outside the college as there are many stalls available outside.

Faculty: The curriculum is well-designed according to the course duration. For example, in the first year, we have 2 different subjects, which are not there in any of the law colleges in the country. These 2 subjects are basics of legislation and case law.

Other: I chose this course because of my interest, and the good thing about this course is that you get to learn about the subjects of law and B.A. Many events are conducted in our college. We have a literary fest in which the events like judgment writing, poetry writing and treasure hunt are organised. Apart from that, cultural fest and sports fest are conducted.
