NUJS's 5-acre Salt Lake campus is compact enough that the hostels, classrooms, library and canteen are all about a 90-second walk apart, so students (hostel stay is compulsory in year one) live an almost round-the-clock routine built around moot problems, with the intra-college Novice Moot each October as the first real rite of passage.

What the campus is like socially

WB National University of Juridical Sciences runs on a small-cohort, moot-court culture where batches stay tight for five years. Most social life centers on the hostel mess, the moot court and debate societies, and the inter-NLU competition circuit.
