NUJS (Has the best placement record amongst other NLUs).
GNLU
NLUJ (Used to be ahead of GNLU, but their placements have been abysmal for the Batch of 24 and also, they now have a domicile quota).
NLIU
Jindal
HNLU/NLUO (NLUO has a slightly better placement record).
Symbiosis Pune
This is the ranking order and do not tamper with it. NUJS is still one of the best institutions in the country. In every parameter, it's far ahead of NLIU: better placement record, more Rhodes Scholars (NLIU has none), better faculty, and most importantly, better student quality. Yes, NLIU has a better campus, but what are you going to do with that? You're there to study, get a job, and hone your skills. Choose NUJS, and I am from neither of these institutions, hence no bias. NLIU technically is below GNLU and NLUJ now; their reputation is already tarnished with the amount of scandals that have happened there, including fake degrees though it's still a T1 NLU and surprisingly, batch of 24 managed to do well in NLIU as most of them got placed.
GNLU has a better placement record, more number of Rhodes Scholars, a better campus, and way more chill admins, which gives you a lot of time to do your things. NUJS is still way ahead of GNLU. In terms of everything, they are ahead, so be wise, choose NUJS and do not temper with the preferences.
As you are middle class, aim 99 percentile LSAT score and study with 75% tuition fee scholarship in all 5 years. You have two chances in January and May LSAT exam.
1. NLSIU
Joint # 2. NALSAR or NLUD
4. JGLS (if you can afford it)
5. GNLU
Joint # 6. NUJS or NLUJ
8. NLIU
Joint #9. RMLNLU or RGNUL
Apart from great placements, you do get some decent faculty and a great party culture. People even get fucking single rooms by the 3rd year.
Lastly, the alumni base is absolutely amazing with several recruiting partners in almost all T1 firms.
And, NUJS.
Look at the batch size.
There are many GNLU fan boys here but that's coz they have such a huge batch size.
Now coming to your question.
Fees at NUJS is at the higher side plus campus is also really small.
NLIU's fee is lower and campus is bigger, but campus size shouldn't be an issue at all.
If you're middle class I'm presuming you want placement, NUJS gives you slight advantage over NLIU.
I want y’all to drop opinions based upon placements, foreign exposure and litigation. Mods please mark this thread featured, so as to gain attention. I really need urgent help
