Being an alumni of Lovely professional University I could answer that undoubtedly LPU would be the best option for pursuing BBA and to take admission in BBA program the eligibility is 50% marks in 10+2 (with English) or equivalent .The LPUNEST exam is basically for scholarship and eligibilty purpose. Some of the salient features of the BBA program are mentioned below: a) Accreditation: As LPU got accreditation from Accreditation Council of Business Schools and Programs, USA (ACBSP). Not only LPU is highly accredited but also it is having numerous international tie ups for instance university of North Alabama, Livingstone College etc. 2.Ranking: LPU has following ranking: 1.Impact rankings 2022, National Employability Award 2020 by Aspiring Minds,Outlook has ranked LPU as 5th among top 50 universities, Knowledge Review rated LPU as 10 th among Best training and Placement Institute. 3.Placements:Top brands like Amazon, Trident, HDFC Bank, ITC, ICICI Bank, Kotak Mahindra Bank, LIC Mutual Fund Asset Management, Oyo Rooms, Swiggy, Tata Motors, TCI, Tech Data, Think and Learn (BYJU) come for the campus recruitment.

Moreover they are either Doctorates or are pursuing their PhD's. 5.Academic Curriculum: The syllabus is being updated time and then so that latest developments of the present scenario could also be shared to the students. 6.Industry Interface :Content delivery by industry experts, Projects in collaboration with industry,Internships to engage deeply in hands on real-life situations 7.Industry certifications, MOOCs, Hackathons / Co-curricular Competitive events, Workshops, Guest lectures, Educational Trips, Live projects, Incubation projects, Community projects, projects with NGOs etc. are an integral part of curriculum 8.Study Abroad Semester/ Year abroad / Summer School: Get a foreign degree through international collaborations (2 year in India and 2 years abroad or 2 year in India and 1 year abroad or 1 year in India and 1 year abroad) THE LIST IS ENDLESS !!!

LPU NEST is not compulsory for you. If you have already secured 50% marks in your +2 or equivalent level, then NEST is not compulsory. Still, if you want, you can give LPU-NEST, it is upto you.

Samreen Begum · Answer

Depending on the specialization that you opt for, whether you have to appear for the LPU-NEST exam or can be chosen on the basis of your Class 12 marks or not is something to be checked. For general BBA and a few specializations, admission is merit-based and students are selected based on your Class 12 marks (usually a minimum of 50–60% aggregate with English). But for BBA (Hons.), Integrated BBA-MBA, and some specializations such as International Business, Financial Markets, Blockchain, and Business Analytics, you are required to take LPUNEST or CUET UG. Overall, some BBA courses in LPU need the entrance exam, whereas others take students on the basis of their 12th mark sheet.

LPU uses a smooth and student-friendly admissions process for their BBA program. LPU does not need to take LPUNEST - your marks in 12th (minimum 50% aggregate in English) gives you direct admission eligibility particularly with the regular BBA programs (for example: Tourism & Hospitality, Airlines & Airport Management etc.). If you wish to take advantage of the scholarships then you should take the LPUNEST as the scholarships are between 10%-100% waiver from the fee depending on your score. This offers flexibility: you can get admission based on your board marks and then you can take the LPUNEST to get a better scholarship eligibility or you can take it after you received provisional admission (this can count as your admission to university so is good to do early). I know many seniors confirm that LPUNEST is not required for the regular BBA and is primarily just there to provide scholarship opportunities. In the end, LPU has a good and student-centered way of getting into the BBA, you can get in through your marks or by taking the LPUNEST. Check for eligibility and some up-to-date scholarship timelines on LPU's website.

hey, Since admission to LPU for BBA Lateral Entry is mostly determined by prior academic achievement, students are not required to take the LPU-NEST exam. You can be admitted directly if you hold a diploma in economics, management, or commerce with at least 50% of the possible points. If you fit the requirements, you can apply without worrying about entrance tests because the university has a student-friendly stance. However, if you're looking for financial aid, LPU-NEST might be helpful for scholarships. LPU is a good option for business students because of its easy admissions process and excellent skill-development, internship, and placement options.

hi, Yes, BBA (Hons.) students at Lovely Professional University (LPU) can secure admission based on their 12th-grade marks. The primary eligibility criterion is a minimum of 50% aggregate marks in 10+2 with English as a subject. The LPUNEST (Lovely Professional University National Entrance and Scholarship Test) is not mandatory for admission into the BBA (Hons.) program. However, students aiming for scholarships are encouraged to take the LPUNEST, as it serves as a basis for awarding financial aid. In summary, while LPUNEST is optional for admission, it is beneficial for students seeking scholarships.

Hi there, for BBA program, LPUNEST is not mandatory but for BBA Hons program LPUNEST is mandatory as well as you need to have 60 percent aggregate in class 12 or equivalent. All the information pertaining to lpunest such as syllabus, sample papers, revision papers etc is given on lpunest website. You can check. However, I can give you a brief about the BBA lpunest here. The LPUNEST paper differs for every single person and if you have made your best efforts in the preparation for the exam you can very easily qualify and even score much better to avail scholarship also. The exam is held to test your basic conceptual knowledge about the subjects that you have already studied in your 12th class. For a written exam you just have to go through the subjects that you have previously studied. Basic knowledge of English, current affairs and optimum level of aptitude English is compulsory and any two of the below mentioned subjects can be opted: Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, Biology, Accountancy, Business Studies, Economics, Computer Science, History, Sociology, Psychology, Geography, Agriculture, Physical Education, Political Science, Public Administration.
