Admission to National Law Universities (NLUs) in India is highly competitive, requiring success in the Common Law Admission Test (CLAT). Damodaram Sanjivayya National Law University (DSNLU) in Visakhapatnam is one of the NLUs where an applicant with an All India Rank of 2391 eventually secured admission. The university has a young, qualified faculty with a favorable faculty-to-student ratio, offering updated courses in criminal and corporate law among others. DSNLU's curriculum includes projects, viva voce, and exams, each subject totaling 100 marks.
Fees include Rs 1,55,000 for the first year plus Rs 35,000 for the mess, with a 10% annual increase until the 5th year, excluding security deposits. Placement at DSNLU is improving, with a current rate of about 90%; 45 out of 50 students secured jobs last year, with average salary packages of 6 to 7 lakh per annum, and the highest reaching 25 lakh per annum. Internships are available across sectors, though many are unpaid.
The university's placement cell and personal networking help in securing placements, starting from the 4th year. DSNLU doesn’t offer its own scholarships but directs students to government scholarships, particularly from the Andhra Pradesh Government for minority and disadvantaged groups. Tuition and associated fees, including accommodation, total around INR 2.35 lakh annually, with a 10% annual increase expected. Over five years, costs might reach INR 12 to 14 lakh. Scholarships are available based on merit and category, with potential waivers from the Vice Chancellor.
The base fee is INR 2,13,900 annually, excluding the mess fee. Additional fees apply for NRI students, and government loans are available to assist with financial needs.
