Mainly an online process, LPU NEST Counselling enables qualified candidates to fill in seat preferences, upload documents, and make payments remotely. On such occasions, candidates might deposit fees offline, visit the university campus or camp office, or submit their applications. As per preference, seat allotment occurs according to merit ranks, while results can be viewed online.

Yes, Lovely Professional University announces the LPU NEST counselling. The dates will most commonly be published alongside exam schedules and result timelines for every phase, online counselling from February 8, 2026, B.Tech program. These dates are updated per programme (e.g., B.Tech, MBA) and phase, i.e., slot booking and results of seat allotment by online examination, which will be declared soon after the completion of exams, often within 24 to 48 hours. Candidates can refer to the "Important Dates" section for the last dates for admission, for example, February 25, 2026, for B.Tech.

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.

S
Samreen Begum

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.
