Life at NLUO

Verified Review

College Infrastructure

The classrooms are well furnished and there are ample number of classrooms in all three floors. The library is still in making , so we have to manage with a smaller one which is present in the academic block itself. The sports centre is decent and could have been better. The best thing about the hostels are single occupancy rooms and the food is top notch.

Living here gave me the best experience of college life.

College Infrastructure

The college comprises of an academic block where you spend most of your time. There you can find the different lecture halls, tutorial rooms, moot court halls, commitee rooms, faculty chambers, seminar halls etc. There 2 boys hostel and 1 girls hostel with single room occupancy. Another girls hostel and the law library is still under construction. There are different sports facilities available on campus. However the scenic beauty of Mahanadi and Kathajodi is the cherry on the cake.

Have a question related to NLU Odisha ?

Hey Aspirant,

Hope you are doing good....!!


As you want to know about the Admission in NLUs through 5000 ranks. As per the previous year's trends, the All India Rank (AIR) below 500 in the CLAT exam is considered good. However, students who secure ranks between 1-1000 will also get admission to NLUs like NALSAR Hyderabad, GNLU Gandhinagar, and NLU Jodhpur.

With the 5000 ranks, you might not get admission under the general category. However, you might get admission in the reserved category.
