    Hello Sangeeta, you just need 50 percent marks and secondly you have to qualify LPUNEST for admission in the course of journalism.
    Journalism has a lot of glamour attached to it. The thing that attracts one to the field of journalism is the opportunity to rub shoulders with the whos and who of the country and the world. Journalists are at work round the clock, till the news is being covered.
    Doing mass communication opens many windows to the related fields as well. Lets have a look

    hi,

    To apply, visit LPU's official website or the LPU Admit portal, register, choose the Mass Communication program, and submit your details. Next, apply for LPUNEST—the university's entrance and scholarship test—upload necessary documents, then book your exam slot and appear for the test.

    For 2025 admission, the online application started December 10, 2024, closing on January 15, 2025. LPUNEST was held between January 20 – February 5, 2025, followed by counselling in March–April 2025.

    Well, to my knowledge, unlike other famous Universities offering mass communication and journalism course across the country, LPU also provides mass communication and journalism but I believe, the mode of teaching and learning is in English. LPU provides rigorous exposure to students on pre-production, production, post-production, scriptwriting for radio, TV, and news media. There will be more practical exposure to students through field visits and interaction with industry experts.

Hey, for LPU NEST counselling, you'll need to carry these docs to make things smooth—LPU keeps it straightforward so you can focus on joining their awesome campus life.
Class 10th marksheet and certificate for basic ID and birth proof. Class 12th marksheet and certificate to verify your scores. LPUNEST admit card and scorecard, super important for eligibility. A recent passport-size photo, your Aadhaar or any valid photo ID, and category certificate if you're applying under reserved quota. If needed, graduation marksheet for specific programs.

Hey, so from what I've checked on LPU's official site, the NEST counselling is mainly done online, which is super convenient for us students anywhere in India. You just log in after your results, pick your preferred courses and seats based on your rank, and lock it all in digitally—no need to travel right away.​
It's got this smooth flow: download your scorecard, fill choices online, get seat allotment via merit, pay the initial fee (like INR20,000) through net banking or UPI, then submit docs later. LPU makes it flexible too, letting you pay offline at campus if you prefer, but the core process stays online for quick access.​

Yeah, LPU totally releases the LPU NEST counselling dates on their official site—it's super organized and student-friendly. For 2026, they've got it starting February 8th onwards for B.Tech, with online seat preferences from Feb 8-10, results on 12th, and admissions up to late Feb. Results drop quick, like within 24-48 hours post-exam, so you can jump right into counselling without waiting forever.​
It's all online mostly, through nest.lpu.in, where you update choices and get allotments based on your score—makes it easy from anywhere. No offline hassle unless you want campus visits for fees. LPU keeps everything updated live, way

Yes, it is actually very much required to bring along Class 10 and 12 certificates or at least mark sheets during the LPU NEST counseling, primarily because the university explicitly would wish to establish the age of applicants from the Class 10 marksheet and verify eligibility with the Class 12 certificate/marksheet before confirming admission and awarding a scholarship.

at LPU NEST counselling, you would have to check the result & rank, fill and lock online course/seat preferences, get the allotment of the seat based on the rank and choices, pay to secure the seat by paying the initial fee, and go on to upload/verify documents and pay the remaining fee within the stipulated time for final admission.
