STUDENTTESTIMONIALS

Shivani Prasad

College is a phase of growing and learning. My experience at NMIMS School of Law has been a learning experience where, with the best of the knowledge resources, I have been able to achieve my professional goals. The last five years have taught me a lot and it has been an enriching experience!

B.B.A., LL.B. (Batch 2015 – 20)

Ketan SarrafWhen I first entered this college, I was shocked to see the campus. But I realized, the smaller the campus, the closer everyone is. You get to know everyone from the senior-most batch to freshers, making it a healthy environment of growth and development. The feared attendance policy that overwhelms everyone when they first hear about it is in favor of the students as they soon realize in continuous breaks. Lastly, the experienced faculties here make you a better human being and prepare you for almost every challenge you might face in your career.

Aniruddha Dwivedi

I decided to become a lawyer when I was in 11th standard and I knew it had to be Kirit P. Mehta School of Law. The journey from there to the classrooms of KPMSOL is nothing but an adventurous, scary and bumpy ride. Be it the fear of attendance or the excitement of the cultural fest (Tera lock Meraki) or the chillest seniors who make the environment so amicable for us, everything here is fun. A law school might appear to be intimidating, but the experience you have here is one thing you would cherish for life!

B.B.A., LL.B. (Batch 2018 – 23 )

Nikita Gupta

Choosing to study in Kirit P. Mehta School of Law was one of the best decisions that I have made for myself because NMIMS does not just focus on any one aspect but strives for the holistic development of each of its students, unlike any other law school. I know that I am a better individual, both personally and professionally because of the environment that the School of Law has offered and isn't that what a college should do for you?

B.A., LL.B. (Batch 2016 – 21)

Ivin George

The best thing, which has also been often hailed as the worst thing about our college is our attendance policy. Although strict, you get used to it once you realize that it helps a lot. It forced us to sit in lectures and learn, and also make friendships which would last a lifetime. The faculty is excellent, they are mentors and not just professors, we have at least 3-4 Jitu Bhaiyas and we could not be more grateful.
