Can I apply for NEST after 5th March?

Allotment of seats in LPU NEST-wise counseling will depend on the merit rank of candidates, their eligibility, and the online filling of course and specialisation preferences. The procedure consists of download rank card, filling of preferences for seats, and finally, seat allotment. Seat allotment is done as per the availability and preferences. Candidates will have to confirm the allotted seat after payment of a nominal fee and submission of required documents. The earlier a student is in applying, the better his chances of ending with a favourable seat and scholarship.

hi,

Seats during LPU NEST counselling are allocated based on the candidate's rank, choices filled, and seat availability. After qualifying the exam, candidates must register for counselling, fill in their preferred courses and specializations, and lock their choices. Allocation is done in order of merit—higher-ranked candidates get priority. If the preferred seat is unavailable, the system allots the next best option. Once a seat is allotted, candidates must confirm admission by paying the initial fee within the given deadline. Failure to do so may result in losing the seat, and it gets offered in subsequent counselling rounds.

After re-downloading the revised version by visiting the official website of NEST, candidates must ensure that the revised scorecard consists of the correct information related to their qualifying percentile and the issue date, which is July 17, 2025.

All the selected candidates must know that it is important for them to download the revised NEST 2025 scorecard issued on July 17, 2025. Only the revised NEST Scorecard will be considered valid for all future admission processes and the previous versions will not be valid during verification.
