In all other parameters like faculty quality, co-and-extra curricular opportunities, placements etc. NUJS is ahead of GNLU
Someone below is commenting about US LLM, it does not help unless you already have a couple of years of PQE. If you get a PPO you can recoup the extra cost of NRI seat at NUJS in 6 months.
you know why
if I say anything more then the comment will be marked trollish ;)
- As someone said, you save money which you can use for an LLM abroad. If you save 10 lakhs or so, that may not help much in the US, but will definitely help in the UK or Singapore or Australia, where costs are less and 10 lakh matters more.
- The GNLU campus is nicer than NUJS. The main reason is that GNLU gets a lot more funding than NUJS.
- Modi, Adani and Ambani are pumping in thousands of crores into Gujarat. It is a state that is economically flourishing. Companies and firms setting up operations in Gujarat may preferred to recruit from GNLU rather than NUJS (this is based on the assumption that Modi will win in 2024).
- While faculty at GNLU and NUJS are about the same in quality, the quality of admin at NUJS has declined a lot because of political interference by the present state govt.
If you miss your parents in Kolkata, you can consider 2 or 3 internships there.
On the other hand, studying as a day scholar in your hometown will make you a pampered mummyβs boy, plus your maid will do all work for you. So go for GNLU and become a chad. Donβt end up as a beta/cuck.
P.S. For the same reason I will suggest that people in Gujarat should pick NUJS gen quota over GNLU NRI quota.
Think about it. Jindal can open doors for you abroad if you are rich (which you seem to be).
Of course, you can also forsake the comforts of home and pursue the above in Ahmedabad and Gandhinagar. But you may wish to check the exact location of GNLU. They are building a metro station there, I am told. Will that get you to the city centre in Gandhinagar or Ahmedabad fast?
