Frequently Asked Questions

If you’re starting right after 12th, the School of Law has two five-year integrated options: BA LLB (Hons) and BBA LLB (Hons). Graduates from any field can go for the three-year LLB (Hons) instead. The LLM is two years long, with specialisations in Criminal Law, Constitutional & Administrative Law, Corporate & Commercial Law, and Mediation Law. For those who want to go into research, the school also runs a PhD program through its Law Research Centre.
Both take five years and give you an LLB at the end. So what’s different? The subjects that come along with law. In BA LLB, you’ll study things like political science and history. That’s handy if you want to argue cases in court or sit for judiciary exams. BBA LLB brings in business, finance, and accounts instead. Thinking of corporate law or a job with a big firm? Go for BBA LLB.
Honestly, there’s no clear winner here. They suit students at different stages. Just finished 12th and sure about law? The 5-year course saves you a year overall, since your graduation and law degree come together. Already have a degree, or decided on law a little later? Then go for the 3-year LLB. Either way, you end up with the same LLB, and it counts just as much in court, at a law firm, or in a judiciary exam.
Yes. Your stream in 12th doesn’t matter. Science, commerce, and arts students can all apply for BA LLB or BBA LLB. What counts is your score. General category students need at least 45%, OBC candidates need 42%, and SC/ST candidates need 40%.
Sandip University’s LLM runs for two years. There are four areas to specialise in: Criminal Law, Constitutional & Administrative Law, Corporate & Commercial Law, and Mediation Law. Can’t decide? Picture the work you’d like to be doing five years from now. If that’s arguing in a courtroom or prosecuting cases, Criminal Law is your pick. For governance and public law, look at Constitutional. If business and contracts interest you, go for Corporate. And if you’re drawn to settling disputes outside court, Mediation is a good fit.
Bachelor’s law degrees at Sandip University cost ₹80,000 a year for 2026-27. That’s ₹70,000 in academic fees plus ₹10,000 for library and exams. Going for an LLM? You’ll pay ₹60,000 a year, with ₹50,000 of that as academic fees and ₹10,000 as the special fee. Good marks in 12th or a sports medal could also cut your tuition through a scholarship, so do look into that.
Yes. The Bar Council of India approves the law programs at Sandip University’s School of Law. That matters more than most students realise. Without BCI approval, your degree won’t let you enrol as an advocate or sit for the All India Bar Examination (AIBE). You can check the approval details on the university’s Approvals page.
Yes, there’s a dedicated moot court on campus where students practise arguing cases. Every year the school runs its own national moot court competition too. It’s already been held four times. Students also go out to legal aid camps in villages around Nashik and help people with real legal issues. On top of that, there are trips to courts, Lok Adalats and even jails, and short courses on legal drafting. All of it adds up to practical experience well before you graduate.
Some of our law graduates now work at ICICI Bank, KPMG, JP Morgan and Amazon. Not sure which way to go after your degree? The Centre for Career Counselling and Higher Studies on campus can help, whether you’re looking at jobs, the judiciary, or a master’s. Plenty of graduates go on to practise as advocates too. The university’s placements page has year-wise details.
You can, provided your LLB is BCI-approved. Once you graduate, you register with your State Bar Council and pass the AIBE, and then you’re free to practise. Judiciary rules are a little different now. In August 2026, the Supreme Court made changes. From April 2027, you’ll need at least one year of practice before you can sit for the Civil Judge exam. Until March 2027, fresh graduates can still apply directly.
