Yes, Duke University offers merit scholarships to international students and every admitted applicant is considered for a merit scholarship.

Merit scholarship recipients are selected by an Admissions Merit Scholarship Committee. The criteria for selection are prior academic achievement, demonstrated leadership, community involvement, extracurricular activities, and professional accomplishments. These awards are for the 2-year duration of the MBA programme and range from partial tuition to full tuition.

Fuqua's merit scholarships are awarded on a 2-year basis to enable applicants to plan for the entire cost of a Fuqua education. There is no funding for new awards in the second year. Thus, students who enroll without scholarship funding the first year should not anticipate an award for the second year of the program.

The merit scholarship awards are made independent of determining a student's eligibility for student loans and work-study employment.

Both universities are good in their own ways, but if we talk about LPU (Lovely Professional University), it has some strong points that really stand out.

First of all, LPU is a big name across India. The campus is huge and very well maintained. It has students from all over the country and even from outside India, so the exposure is amazing. You get to learn with people from different backgrounds, which really helps in personality development.

Also, placement is a big plus at LPU. Many top companies like Amazon, Cognizant, Capgemini, and others visit the campus. Some students even get packages in double digits (in lakhs). So if you are serious and work hard, you’ll definitely get good opportunities.

The infrastructure and facilities are also very modern – big libraries, smart classrooms, labs, and everything is up to date. Even the hostel and food facilities are decent.

Another good thing is LPU offers a lot of activities – cultural fests, tech events, sports, everything. So you don’t just study, you grow in many ways.

Uttaranchal University is also doing well, especially in law and some technical fields, but LPU has a bigger brand name and more exposure, especially if you are thinking long-term – like placements, networking, or higher studies.

So , if you are looking for a university that gives you more exposure, good placements, and overall development, LPU is a solid choice.
