    LPU conducts LPU-NEST for MBA, engineering, law, design, agriculture, applied medical sciences, hotel management and Ph.D. LPU-NEST is an entrance and scholarship test. You get admission as well as scholarship when you qualify this exam. But there are a few courses in which you get direct admission, you need not appear in LPU-NEST if you have good percentage in last qualifying exam. To get a scholarship for any course example BBA /BCA/B.Com/M.Com, you can apply for the same through our website.
