The faculty is very good and the infrastructure is also very good.

Other: I was so interested in doing law, and this course is the best; legal knowledge is important in our life. Scholarships are available and extracurricular activities are also there; a fest will also be there.

Life at Damodaram Sanjivayya National Law University, Visakhapatnam.

Exams are conducted in two phases: mid-semester exams and end-semester exams. Mid-semester exams are worth 25 marks, while end-semester exams are worth 50 marks, with an additional 25 marks for projects. The exams can be a little difficult as they maintain NLU standards.

This college is a legal education hub.

Placements: Since the college is one of the young NLUs, the placements here are not as expected. However, the placement record is reasonable. The college doesn't reveal the official placement record. Internship placement cell is working hard to raise the placement percentage every year. The placement rate is improving every year. All the students who passed out from here were well settled, and I can affirm this without any doubt.

Infrastructure: You'll find the best infrastructure in this college. The library is well-equipped with Wi-Fi and other e-sources where a student can work with ease. Medical facilities are not much appreciable. Special attention is given for sports and games. The mess offers both the south Indian and north Indian cuisines in order to avoid the food issues since students join here from different parts of the country. Facilities like 24X7 electricity and hot water are available here. Regular attendance will be taken in the hostel, which speaks the disciplinary standards in the hostel.

Faculty: Faculty here are well experienced. Standards and quality of education are never compromised elements. However, some minor issues are common in every college. The course curriculum is prepared without considering practical difficulties. However, the present course is worthy of working upon. Each teacher uses their respective teaching methods which makes a student learn with joy.

Other: A number of committees have been constituted to organise different types of programs and competitions. The campus is surrounded by eastern ghats which offer healthy and beautiful sceneries. The campus is built in such a way that it helps students to tackle stress. Certain internal issues are common in every institution, but those are regularly solved with caution and care. The fee here is a bit high, but the education imparted here is worth the money spent.
