      I don't think I'm the best candidate to rate this aspect fairly. But I think teachers were not able to teach us what was needed in the workplaces. A good amount of exposure and training for research and good litrature.

      College Infra

      The facilities provided in the academic block are sub par in an otherwise beautiful campus which is ever so peaceful. The football field was designed for drinking and making out. Yeah, it was pretty big and lively yet quiet at the same time.

      The tag helps. It does. And the networking channels. A lot of people get jobs on DayZ and even those who don't end up securing jobs on day z end up securing a job by the time of graduation. The pay parity may not be the same.

      Academics

      I am in BBA LLB course. The college has great faculties and every teacher is very knowledgeable. Law is a field wherein one has to stay updated of the current developments all the time. The same is always updated and include all the recent developments. The college also offers various competitions which helps in building CVs and hence, makes you job-ready.

      College Infra

      Yes, the college has all the necessary infrastructure and facilities required. There are a lot of sports facilities available. The acad block is well maintained and the classrooms are also very spacious. The hostels are divided into various buildings. The best thing about NLUJ hostels is the single occupancy system of the hostel rooms. From the very first year onwards, a person is allotted a single room which remains same for throughout one's college life i.e., for 5 years.

      Campus Life

      The campus life is very refreshing. One can take part in many sports activities while being on campus. There are 2 major fests of the campus - Yuvardha, sports fest, and NH-65, which is the cultural fest of the college. The campus also celebrates other festivals like Holi, Diwali, Navratra, etc. Every Staff and Faculty is very welcoming. The college is a safe space and can handle emergencies as it has its own hospital ward.

      Placements

      On an average, the national law firms offer packages between 8 to 16 lakhs per annum during their campus placements. Meanwhile, the International Law firms have offered packages between 28 to 30 lakhs per annum.

      Value For Money

      The Course costs around Rs. 2,46,000 per year which does not include the cost of food. I don't think being a government college, it should charge so much money from its students.

      hi,

      With a CLAT 2025 score of 30 marks, securing admission to National Law University (NLU) Jodhpur under the general category is highly unlikely. Historically, NLU Jodhpur has maintained high cutoffs for its BA LLB (Hons.) program. For instance, in CLAT 2024, the general category closing rank was around 379,
