One thing that genuinely works in favour of LPU is its scholarship culture, which feels inclusive rather than rare. The university offers multiple scholarship routes, including those based on LPUNEST scores, past academic performance, sports, cultural achievements, or special eligibility categories, which means many students find some level of fee support. I've personally seen classmates walk in with entry-level scholarships and later earn performance-based benefits as they progressed. It creates a motivating environment where effort is noticed and rewarded, and overall, LPU's approach reflects a clear intent to make quality education

No, it is not necessary to qualify LPUNEST to pursue an MBA from LPU. The university offers admission based on merit in the qualifying degree (bachelor's degree) or through national-level entrance exams like CAT, MAT, XAT, CMAT, or NMAT.
