Upcoming Event

Law offers a variety of career opportunities, with aspirants having the option to become part of the judiciary or pursue private practice. Then, there are law firms that recruit graduates from top law colleges in India. Further, aspirants can also build a career in academia. The increasing popularity of law as a career has seen a simultaneous rise in law colleges in India. But which ones are the best law colleges in India? What are the parameters to consider? Careers360 has compiled the list of the top 25 law colleges in India based on specific relevant parameters to help law aspirants make the right decision. These colleges offer 5-year LLB, 3-year LLB, and LLM programmes. Read ahead to get the complete list and other relevant details.
Legal Profession in India
The legal profession has become very complex in the modern world because of new law specialisations. The best law colleges will be the ones that adjust their LLB syllabus and pedagogy to these evolving changes in the legal field. Let’s look at some points in this context
Until 30 years back, there was no Cyber Law, but today, technology and Artificial Intelligence (AI) are the driving forces of the modern world.
Corporate law has expanded and become more complex with new forms of compliance and other corporate issues arising over the years.
Environmental law has assumed significance in recent years as climate change has become a hot topic, and the world is rapidly adopting renewable sources of energy.
Similarly, tax law has become so complex and complicated that people are looking at interpretations in different ways.
Things to Consider When Selecting Top Law Colleges
Below are some points that candidates must remember when selecting a law college. These points also form the foundation on which Careers360 law college rankings have been prepared.
Candidates must keep a holistic view of the law college rankings. For instance, a college may rank at 10th and another at 17. However, it doesn't mean that the 10th is better than the 17th or the 17th is better than the 10th. Aspirants must keep an overview of the overall rankings and not make rankings the goalpost.
Secondly, candidates must only study law in a college approved by the Bar Council of India. BCI is the only accreditation body for law colleges in India.
Next, candidates must ascertain the quality of faculty and the specialisations offered by the colleges. It’s also important to understand that as one moves up the corporate ladder, one needs to have an overall understanding of every law, as all the laws are somehow interconnected.
Next, candidates must look at the internship and placement opportunities offered by the college and the type of law firms that are part of the placement season.
Another critical point to consider is the learning resources available at the college, the quality of the library, and the availability of moot court and research journals.
The last point to look at when selecting the top law colleges is whether the colleges conduct talks or workshops by retired judges of the High Courts, Supreme Courts and legal luminaries. These talks are important as these personalities talk from real-life experiences.

Hello,
In CLAT , the 9-digit admit card number is not the same as the roll number you have to write on the OMR sheet. The OMR sheet has only 7 blocks because the CLAT roll number is shorter.
You should check your admit card again and look for the roll number printed near your name and exam details. Fill only that roll number in the OMR sheet. Do not write the 9-digit admit card number.
If you still cannot find the roll number, you can ask the exam invigilator on the exam day.
Hope it helps !
