Question

ParmSidhu · Answer

Lovely Professional University (LPU) offers a wide range of scholarships to help students reduce the cost of higher education. Scholarships are available on the basis of academic performance, entrance and scholarship tests, sports achievements, cultural activities, national-level achievements and other categories. One of the important options is the merit-based scholarship, where students with strong marks in their qualifying examination can receive a significant concession in programme fees. Students can also appear for LPUNEST, depending on the programme and applicable admission criteria, to become eligible for scholarships and other benefits. LPU also provides scholarships for students who have demonstrated excellence in sports, cultural activities and other recognised achievements. In addition, there are scholarship categories for certain special backgrounds and achievements, subject to the university's eligibility conditions. The scholarship percentage and maximum benefit can vary according to the programme, qualifying examination, category and admission session. Some scholarships may also require students to maintain a specified academic performance during their studies for continuation. Therefore, students should not look only at the maximum advertised scholarship percentage; they should check which scholarship category applies to them and what conditions are attached to it. The scholarship can make LPU more affordable, particularly for students who have performed well academically or achieved distinction in other areas. Before taking admission, students should check the latest scholarship structure for their specific programme and calculate the actual fee payable after the applicable scholarship. Overall, LPU provides several opportunities for meritorious and talented students to receive financial support throughout their academic journey.

In a bid to owe the social responsibility towards the needy, and give a token to the meritorious, LPU offers a range of scholarships and financial aid. You do not have to apply for a scholarship every time you pay the fee. What you get at the time of admission, continues till the course is over. However, the criteria are different for those who have sought admission through sports quota, board toppers, and performing arts. If you are a board topper and someone from the sports category and extracurricular performance category, you will have to either maintain a CGPA or keep performing in sports or extracurricular activities as the case may be. Otherwise, if you have got a scholarship through LPU NEST then you are not bound to maintain your academic or sports performance. There are other scholarships the university offers. Marks based (for previous two qualifying Exams) Performance in other National Level Entrance test Performance in Sports, Performance in Cultural, R&D, Co-curricular, Social Services, Bravery Special Scholarship for Toppers of Education Board Financial Aid for Defense /CAPF and their dependents Financial Aid for Orphan Candidates Financial Aid for Persons with certain disabilities LPUNEST Study Grant Minorities Transgender Non Traditional student Need Based-Financial Aid EWS scholarship for those whose family income is less than 5 lacs Single girl child Single Mother Orphan.
