We want LI to be one of the friendliest places on the internet, where lawyers and law students help each other with their career related queries and occasionally discuss other stuff that might affect their lives too. In other words:
1. Be kind, respectful and helpful to each other.
2. Be bona fide, truthful, genuine and curious.
3. Assume the best intention of others.
Therefore, in using the site, you must agree to do your best to uphold these community guidelines.

Our full terms and conditions apply too.
Do you solemnly agree to all of the above?
1. Do LLM students get to avail the hostel facility? If not, where do the LLMs usually find accommodation? What is the general rent like in some PG/Flats around the college?
2. Are there placements for the LLM batch? If yes, what is the average package like and who are the recruiters? (I understand that the placements might not exist for LLMs or be very low. Still, I would like to get a picture of it).
3. What is the academic rigour like? Can one manage the coursework while simultaneously preparing for judiciary?
4. What is the faculty like at the masters level? Also, does the college permit LLMs to attend certain undergrad courses?
5. Your overall experience of pursuing LLM from the college and is it worth it?
Thanks a lot!
2. Placements will depend upon your batch. LLB batches handle their own placement, the university will just provide facilities needed. There are examples of LLM students having been placed from campus. Talk to the different faculty for connections/references. If you are good and hard working enough, then you will get a job. LLB students or their CRC won't help with their legacy contacts.
3. Depends on your undergrad experience. If you come from an NLU or private university having similar syllabus or pedagogy, it will be easy. Not always for TLC people. Less mugging up involved. Writing projects and presenting those may be a new experience for you. Plenty of time available to prep for judiciary or UPSC. Extensions etc. available for real reasons for project and dissertation submission.
4. Mostly same faculty teach undergrads and postgrads here. Some visiting faculty will be there based on your chosen specialisation. Rooms are at a premium till the new ones become fully operational, so classes may often take place in the second half only. You may sit in any undergrad class taking the faculty's permission, nobody would refuse you.
