BBA LLB Hons

National Law University, Jodhpur (Also known as: NLU Jodhpur)

Being ranked in one of the top law schools in India, NLU Jodhpur stands out in many aspects some being infrastructure, academics, and culture. It has a beautiful and vibrant 55- acre campus which includes an acad block, an administrative block, a library, a convention centre , a cricket ground, a football field, a tennis and a badminton court. The campus has 5 boys' and 8 girls' halls of residence. Diversity is one of the first things I experienced when in stepped into this college as it has students with different backgrounds coming from all over the country. It also hosts some of the most sought- after fests such as NH-65(cultural fest) and Yuvardha (sports fest). The extensive course curriculum of the college makes sure you learn to manage your academics and other activities at the same time and that too, effectively. There are a number of committees like the Moot Court, Academic Support, and Literary committee, Sports, Cultural and the Legal Aid and Awareness Committee. their work not only helps us in understanding the working of the college but also in the five years that we spend here, they give us many opportunities to grow in different fields of our liking. Thus life at NLUJ is hectic, stressful and full of surprises. but it is also a place you will surely fall in love with. The stressful environment here prepares us for the gruelling world outside and is worth the pain of going through all the hard work because in the end, it gets you where you want to be.

My first impression while stepping foot in NLUJ was, "how will I survive the unbearable heat!", but through the course of 4 years, despite it's locational disadvantage, unpredictable weather, and scorching sun, I have seen the campus transform from a desolate desert to a lush green oasis and the first years do not have the same complaints anymore. We at NLUJ have the best mess services from among all the CLAT colleges that we have ever been to or heard about - offering exceptional variety with three fully functional mess areas, one fruit shop, and two tuck shops (not to mention the 4 dhabas right outside college which is where you'll find half the college after classes). Other facilities include a unisex gym, Cultural Room with mirrored wall, a two-floor library building with four halls, a dedicated Moot Court Discussion Room, Placement Cell Office, Medical Centre, football field, volleyball football and tennis courts, an indoor badminton court, and about 10 gazebos. There are students from all regions and religions here. We are the only college in the top 5 law colleges in India which offers a BBA course, and I believe this course helped me immensely in securing my placement in a top tier corporate law firm on Day Zero. Our alumni are now well placed in law firms in both India and abroad, private practices in all major high courts, teaching at law colleges internationally, or pursuing further studies from ivy league colleges. This helps the students immensely in securing internships, research work, guidance and sponsorship for international competitions. While students of NLUJ are known for our exemplary mooting achievements, not every student moots, and the college offers them other pathways to excellence such as debating, legal aid work, publication of legal journals, and pro bono access to legal education for the underprivileged. In fact, the "Law Student of the Year" award recipients for both 2015 and 20016 are from our college. All in all, it is a wonderful institution to begin your foray into the legal profession and I would certainly recommend it to everyone!

I am a fourth year student at National Law University Jodhpur, and I feel that I have spent enough time in law school, to pen down my experiences so far. Located in the blue city of Jodhpur, one of the most challenging parts here is definitely the extreme climate. Other than that, the city is an extremely peaceful place to be in, with the old city being the favourite place for us students to go to. To begin with, I would like to talk about that part of my college life, which seemed to be the most important one before I came to college; the part being education. Even though it might obviously seem to be the aspect which would make majority of the difference to one’s life, more often than not, it isn’t. I agree that having good teachers and resources is very essential, but what I want to say here is that there are several other factors which have a greater impact on a student’s life. In my three years of law school, I have been taught by several teachers and in general, I would like to say that our University has a good faculty for most subjects. The teachers are highly qualified individuals, who are extremely knowledgeable in their respective fields. Moving on, I would like to focus on the more significant elements of college in my opinion. Our college has commendable facilities available for various kinds of sports. From an indoor badminton court to an extremely well maintained football field, we have facilities for most sports, which form a major part of the college. With regard to the resources available to us for education, we have a well-stocked library which has numerous books on all the subjects. One of the things which I miss in college though, is a Wi-Fi network available everywhere. Even though we have LAN cables available in our rooms, the lack of a Wi-Fi network is visible every time we are in the mess area and using our phones. One of my favourite things about our University is the fact that all students are provided with a single room for themselves. The idea of having to share my room with some stranger for the next five years of my life was dreadful before I came to NLU-J, only to realise that I would not have to go through the trauma. Even though now I would not mind having a room-mate, but the fact that at the end of a tiring day, I can come back and relax in my own room in whatever way I wish is definitely better. The next most important thing for me is the food available. We have quite a few options available for our everyday meals, given that we have three different caterers. However, after having completed more than half of my term here, like most others, there are days when the food in the mess just does not seem like an option. On days like such, we resort to ordering some food from one of the many restaurants that deliver to our college. To say the least, this place is a wonderful place to be in and I will definitely miss it once I graduate. Even after various shortcomings such as no electricity on a Sunday, consecutive tests, home-sickness, etc., the people around me have made this experience worthwhile.

The best part of the college is that its fully developed and there is absolutely no compromise on it. There is a common gym, two mess buildings, Halls of residence acad block, 2 floored library, sports complex etc. The faculty is a concern for the college as there is a dearth of good teachers. This has been ignored since many students are capable enough to find a way out. Several petitions regarding teachers have been filed but they have all went in vain. This remains an area which the management needs to acts on immediately. Industry Exposure is decent enough. We have Herbert Smith Lecture series being organised recently in which about 150 students participated. There have been many lecture series by eminent professors and advocates from abroad as well. The college does have a party culture and there are several inter college events going on which saves you from the boredom of academics. Placements are decent enough but are largely dependent on how students perform in their respective internships. Exposure is limited to Law firms and other areas such as PSUs in-house counsels, judiciary are not that promoted or encouraged. Hostels have all the basic amenities. Moving in and out of campus is regulated. Student Crowd is quite diversified. By my own experience, I have been able to jell up with people from different states. Also, there are lot of committees which you can be part of like the MCC, Acad committee, Cultural Committee, College administration has become more student friendly since past few months which is the result of the continous effort of the student community. Now there seems to be a balance between the disciplinary actions and freedom of students which promotes a healthy relation between the student community and the administration. A word of Caution: College has been receiving constant criticism from the local media which can mislead people about the reputation of the college. Half of the stories are cooked up.
