    Yes, LPU requires an entrance test called LPUNEST for admission to many of its programs

    • LPUNEST is required for programs like B.Tech, MBA, Law, Agriculture, and Design. However, for courses like BBA, B.Com, and BA, admission can be based on 12th marks without LPUNEST.

    Hello All,

    As an alumni of the university I would say it depends on the type of the programme which you opt to pursue over the LPU. For most of the programme offered the university holds an entrance exam called LPUNEST which the candidate need to apply for securing their admission on to the programme.

    Moreover the LPUNEST is not only and entrance exam it also serves you with better scholarship benefits as well. The candidates may get multidimentional benefits from the same exam. Which means the university holds the best scholarship offers for the students on the basis of marks which they scored over the LPUNEST exam as well.
