LPU does provide scholarships, and to be honest, that's one of the positive aspects of the university. Many students end up receiving some kind of fee assistance because they have a variety of scholarship alternatives depending on LPUNEST performance, academic background, sports, cultural accomplishments, and even unique categories. Many of my classmates received scholarships at the time of entry, and some went on to receive performance-based incentives in the future. In general, LPU seeks to increase access to high-quality education by rewarding students who demonstrate academic or other aptitude.
