    No, you do not need to take the aforementioned tests in order to be admitted to the LPU MBA programme. If you have not taken these exams, you must qualify in the LPU-NEST exam in order to be admitted (after clearing the Interview). In addition, you can apply for a scholarship based on how well you do on the LPU-NEST exam.

    To apply for LPU, aspirants need to register for LPUNEST for admission to undergraduate and postgraduate courses. LPU admission to most of the courses is based on the LPUNEST score. However, national-level entrance exam scores are also accepted for admission to BA LLB (Hons), MBA, BTech, etc.
