Do I need to take LPUNEST for getting admission in LPU?

NO you do not need to appear for the LPU NEST but to take admission in most of course you have to paper for the LPU NEST so it depends on which course you are taking admission. If you want to take admission in engineering, it is mandatory to give LPU NEST exam. In some courses, there is direct admission, in some its mandatory to qualify the LPU NEST exam and in some, LPU NEST and Interview. So, first, decide in which course you want to take admission, and accordingly, you can check whether the LPU NEST exam is mandatory or not.

You have not specified the course in which you are not interested. In some courses, admission is possible without LPU NEST, subject to the fulfilment of eligibility criteria.

No, you don't. But if you write that exam and get good ranks then you can get a fee concession or some scholarship by the university.

Hey, so for LPU's end-term exam in Physical Education, you need at least 30% marks in the end-term itself, plus an overall 40% combining continuous assessment and end-term.

LPU really makes it accessible without compromising quality, way better value than many places I've seen. Total for two years is INR2-2.18 lakhs, but first-year payment is straightforward via UPI or whatever. If you're into ph
