About
JNU is India's best-known public research university for the social sciences, languages and international studies, ranked 2nd among all universities in NIRF 2025. Its forested 1,000-acre campus in South Delhi is famous for near-free tuition, a fiercely argumentative student politics and a deprivation-points admission policy that pulls students in from small towns across India. Most of its programmes are postgraduate; undergraduate entry is mainly through the foreign-language honours degrees.
