    Yes, you can apply for a Ph.D. at LPU with an MCA. While qualifying for NET/JRF is beneficial for some programs, it is not mandatory for admission to all Ph.D. programs at LPU. The university often has its own entrance criteria and may conduct interviews as part of the selection process. It’s best to check the specific requirements for the Ph.D. program you’re interested in.
