Course Curriculum Overview

3

Law opens the door to several job prospects and my dream as a child to be a part of the judiciary has influenced me to choose the course. The curriculum prepares definitely prepares me for higher legal studies and have a strong foundation in legal knowledge. SNU needs to improve the quality of faculty they have and there's a long way to improvement. End semester exams are held over a period of every 4-5 months, they conduct MSA in between each semester. The set the papers really tough.

Internships Opportunities

2

The office staff while admission procedure claimed that the university provides paid internship to the students and helps them work and learn under perfectly experienced leaders. They provide internships from the start of 6th or 7th semester.

Fees and Financial Aid

Sister Nivedita University Kolkata offers several law programmes and I have opted for BA.LLB (hons) where my annual fees stands upto ?37000 as I was awarded scholarship from the University based on merit (100% scholarship on tuition fee). I belong to general category thus I've been conferred with any other privilege. In a contrary, my benchmates who haven't been awarded any scholarship have to make an annual payment of ?12500. The university offers several scholarship programmes such as Aikyashree scholarship and helps the students get the most out of every mean available.

Campus Life

2

The university didn't organise even a fresher's programme for the students, they organise alot of fests but don't look out for the 1st year students involvement. The library has a wide range and collection of books, the books are easy to access. They run several groups, clubs and portals and that impacts the students significantly.

Hostel Facilities

2

The room provided by the hostel is just average with a bed and almirah only. The quality, taste, flavour and smell of the food is just tacky and awful. Registration process is a bit time consuming and it's exorbitant, not at all pocket friendly. Locality: Ae block, New town Action area 1 kolkata.

Admission

While I was looking out for colleges, I had applied to satyabhama institute of science and technology, Xavier's law college bhubaneswar, Christ University Pune and several others. I had got selected in all of the above mentioned colleges but had to take admission in SNU as I'm a resident of west Bengal and Kolkata is the most nearest and accessible city to my home. My family was not in favour of sending me to different state altogether with unknown different culture and unaware societal pattern. Moreover, SNU offered me 100% scholarship on tuition fees while the above mentioned colleges have exorbitant fee structures. I had applied for CUET entrance test targeting BHU but unfortunately I couldn't appear for the cuet exam and couldn't make it. The admission process to my college is really simple. One needs to apply for the online registration then visit the campus for documents verification, after making a deposit of ?30000 as admission fee along with the 1st semester fee, they confirm their admission.

Faculty

2

The faculty to student ratio is 1:10. Average faculty student relationship as they show zero interest in problem solving and improving their commitments to the students. They are not approachable as they believe in knocking the props out and making you feel undervalued. Name of the faculty I liked: Ms. Mishti Saha, i like her for her work ethics, she is consistent, does her job well. She is kind, diligent and responsible. Name of the faculty I didn't like: Mrs Somanjana. She's just too lazy to do her work. She is very mean and she looks tired, sleepy and uninterested 24/7.

Night Life

3

There's no good place to hangout near the college. Campus timing is from 8 am to 6 pm. Hostel in timing is 9pm Axis mall is one of the most famous hangout spot near the college but the area around it doesn't seem to be safe for girls at night.

Other Applied Colleges

St. Xavier's College - [SXC] | Bachelor of Arts [BA] {Hons.} (English)

My credentials better aligned to law and law has several job prospects. St. Xavier's college autonomous has always been my dream college but they don't offer any professional course, so I couldn't join the college.

Placement Experience:

Number of students who have been placed is far less than what it should be ideally. Kolkata is a paradise for law practice as it is the largest city of India and lawyers have always been in demand here. Still only 30% of the students are placed here and that's a big issue considering the name of our college.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The main thing that I love about the curriculum is that we need to study in depth. Our syllabus contains most basic to really professional level stuff which really help us prepare for real life experiences and further academic pursuits. The only change i would like is more practical experiences that would be helpful.

I was fond of international reletaions in my +2 days, thats why I choose Political Science as my honours subject over History.

After having 3 years of immense syllabus, I have finally fall in love with subject in the final as my beloved IR(International Relations) subjects finally came into my life. There was yearly only one exam contains 2 parts accumating questions.
