    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.

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.
