    You just need to be in a rank that's it, you will be automatically qualified or if you have good grades in your diploma then according to your scores you'll get good scholarship and you can be admitted easily without any issues. And for more information you can call to the Toll free number of LPU :- 18001024431. All the best.

    Dear Mohoshin Khan, For the B.Tech (lateral) programme at LPU, you need to qualify for the LPU NEST exam with a minimum of 40% marks in the entrance exam. You should also have a minimum of 60% marks on the Diploma degree.

    Yes, for this, you should have to pass your Diploma with a minimum of 50% aggregate. If it's true for you then no need to give any test I.e. LPU-NEST and you can directly take admission in LPU.
