Hi,

Yes, based on your aggregate of 89.71% in your Diploma, you may be eligible to apply for direct admission to the second year (Lateral Entry) of an Aerospace Engineering program at Lovely Professional University (LPU), assuming you meet their other criteria.

Here are the general steps and considerations for applying to LPU for direct second-year admission:

1. Eligibility Criteria:

   • Typically, LPU requires a minimum of 60% aggregate in your diploma (or equivalent qualification) for lateral entry into engineering programs like Aerospace Engineering.
   • Since you have 89.71%, you should meet the basic eligibility requirement in terms of academic performance.

2. Required Diploma Branch:

   • You need to have completed your diploma in a related engineering discipline. For Aerospace Engineering, relevant branches could include Mechanical Engineering, Aeronautical Engineering, or Civil Engineering, as they share foundational knowledge that aligns with Aerospace Engineering.

3. Application Process:

   • You will need to fill out the application form for the Lateral Entry program at LPU. This is usually done online through their official website.
   • You might be asked to submit your diploma mark sheets, a copy of your diploma certificate, and other personal details.

4. Entrance Exam:

   • Some programs at LPU may require you to take an entrance exam (like LPUNEST) to determine your eligibility for admission, especially for lateral entry. However, some programs might also offer direct admission based on your diploma marks.

5. Documents Required:

   • Apart from the mark sheets and diploma certificate, you may also need to provide other documents such as an identity proof, passport-size photos, etc.

6. Fee Structure:

   • Be sure to check the fee structure for the Aerospace Engineering program at LPU, as lateral entry students may have a different fee schedule than first-year students.

You should contact the LPU admission office or visit their website to confirm the exact requirements and ensure you meet all eligibility criteria for direct second-year admission in Aerospace Engineering.

Thank you
