Hi, The entrance test was compulsory until last year. But due to the current situation I. e. COVID-19, the eligibility criteria is a bit relaxed and the admissions are being done online. The eligibility for admissions 2020 for MBA is 55% in graduation+Interview. However, there are some exceptions in certain cases of categories. Moreover, LPU offers different types of scholarships on the basis of marks in either of the last two qualifications, LPU NEST Sports, Defence, COVID-19 Frontline Scholarship, and many more. If you are eligible for more than one scholarship, only one scholarship you will get is the maximum one. The best thing is if you get the scholarship, the tuition fees after getting a scholarship will be applicable every semester except for a few types of scholarships. The last date for admission to avail maximum scholarship is 31st May 2020. For more information, you can either visit their website or call on their toll-free number- 1800 102 4431, 1800 274 0615. Thanks.

Hi Megha, Yes, LPU does it till previous year but just to facilitate and support the prospective candidates in the COVID-19 Pandemic situation, LPU has relaxed the eligibility criteria. This year, one should not need to qualify the LPU NEST which was mandatory till 2019 but Everyone has to qualify the MANDATORY INTERVIEW along with minimum 55% aggregate marks in any graduation. # Although LPU is providing scholarship on the basis of previous two qualifications but to seek the better scholarship one can take LPU NEST exam to achieve/increase the scholarship. # For maximum scholarship benefits, LPU is advising to proceed further for provisional Admission prior to 31st May 2020. I hope this information will help you.

Hi Megha MBA is an enterprising course, the demand forf which has increased manifold. It has to be pursued from a premier institution like LPU which has gathered many accolades for its MBAs. The entrance test this year has been with drawn due to the grim situation of the country due to covid. This year the admission will depend on the score of your graduation which should be at least 55% and the skype interview which is mandatory. These interviews are being conducted on skype keeping in view the movement constraints of people. You can give the online proctored LPU NEST for slabs of scholarships. You can apply for the same from the website of LPU. Best would be to browse the website of LPU and check the admission procedure so that you can get the best benefits before 31st May. Seats are filling fast due to online admissions. Good Luck!

Dear Aspirant, Yes, without qualifying for an entrance exam of LPU or national level such as MAT/CAT/XAT, you cannot take admission to the MBA programme at LPU. In addition, you have to qualify for an interview conducted by LPU to fulfill the eligibility criteria. I have done MBA from LPU itself and qualified for both the LPU NEST exam and interview conducted by LPU. All the arrangements were really professionally managed. As of now, due to the pandemic, LPU has started online proctored exams which can be given remotely. The condition is, you must have a good internet connection, at least 3G. You can give exams and interviews on a laptop or tablet or mobile smartphone. I recommend you visit the LPU website for more details of the exam. I hope this helps Thanks!
