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.
Note that what you find here is written and moderated by anonymous people on the internet.
Therefore everything you read here is very likely unverified, rumour, speculation and/or downright false.
In continuing to read anything here, you must therefore agree not to take anything you read here as factual and that you will exercise due caution, diligence and common sense before acting on any information you may come across here.
You also agree to report any inaccurate or malicious comments with the buttons. Moderators take action within 24 hours, as required and appropriate under law.
Our full terms and conditions apply too.
Do you solemnly agree to all of the above?
1. Placements seem similar.
2. NLS seems more hectic because of the Trimester, but not really that much of an issue for me.
3. Delhi has locational advantage but the aqi is crazy (genuine question: do they let you install an air purifier inside the hostel room?)
4. I think NLS has more international exposure from reading both their website info. Not sure though, feel free to correct me.
5. Don't know about dating life, but not like I'll ever date someone from college. (surely)
6. NLS has better faculty apparently.
7. NLUD might have less competition due to the smaller batch sizes and the professors can give more individual attention. But is it enough to offset the faculty edge NLS has though?
8. Apparently harder to get a hostel allotted in NLUD if you're from the NCR. (I live outside though)
9. Only other factor that comes to mind is hostel infra, which I don't have much info on. (I know you're not supposed to make college choices based on how good the hostels look but since the other differences seem so close, might as well add this factor too. Your environment affects your mental and productivity in the long run after all.)
Tell me if I missed anything, I would like to make an informed decision.

1. not sure if the placements are same, i'd say NLS has better placements, NLUD is better for litigation and judiciary/upsc. Your location also matters, if you know the local language kannada/hindi, then it'll be easier to work in lower courts of that area, extremely helpful. 2. NLS trimester is negative in my opinion, NLUD is better in this regard. You have less academic pressure, giving you more time and freedom to do other stuff, and if you want more academic rigour, then you can go the library and study. You have in NLUD whereas in NLS you just have to.
3. Location is not that big of an advantage, and yes you can put air purifiers in your room, but i'd suggest you don't, put those lungs to work.
4. I'm not sure what exactly do we mean by this, nor do i have the requisite knowledge to answer this.
5. Again, same :) . You could make an argument for NLS here, bigger batch size, more people, statistics.
6. NLS has better faculty, but they have a batch of 300 odd people, so 5 sections. At best 2 section will get those "better " teachers. In this regard, i'd say both these colleges are similar, not a relevant factor.
7. Due to there being multiple sections in a class, 1 professor does not teach the whole batch (in most cases) so this also makes no difference.
8. Yes, hostels will be an issue. Even if you're from outside NCR, there's a chance you still might not get the hostel.
9. NLS is FAAAAARRR better in infra, NLUD doesn't even come close, be it hostels, library or sports. NLS better.
