At Lovely Professional University (LPU), the tuition fee for the B.Sc. in Airlines, Tourism, and Hospitality—commonly referred to as B.Sc. Aviation—is approximately Rs 40,000 per year, totaling Rs 1,20,000 for the three-year program. For SC category students, there is no specific caste-based fee concession; all students, regardless of category, pay the same tuition amount. However, SC students can benefit from a variety of scholarship options provided by the university. These include merit-based scholarships through LPUNEST, performance in Class 12th board exams, achievements in extracurricular activities, and financial need-based grants. LPUNEST is a key opportunity, as a high score can earn up to 50% tuition fee waiver or more, depending on the performance and scholarship category. Although there is no direct SC-specific fee subsidy, LPU ensures equal access to financial support mechanisms for all students, including those from socially and economically disadvantaged backgrounds. Therefore, an SC category student at LPU can effectively reduce their overall tuition expenses by qualifying for these general scholarships and financial aid programs.
