Hello there,

Yes, your son can get admission to the B.Tech in Civil Engineering at Lovely Professional University (LPU) through lateral entry, provided he meets the eligibility criteria. LPU offers a 3-year B.Tech program for students entering directly into the second year, which is a great option for those who have completed a relevant diploma. To be eligible, students must have completed a 3-year diploma in Engineering (any stream) after 10th grade or a 2-year diploma after 10+2 (Non-Medical) with a minimum of 60% aggregate marks. Alternatively, students with a B.Sc. (Non-Medical) or B.Sc. (Computer Science) degree are also eligible if they have scored at least 60% marks.

The admission process for lateral entry typically involves the LPUNEST exam, which assesses the eligibility of candidates for admission into the second year. However, students who have scored 70% or more in their diploma may be exempt from the entrance exam and can proceed directly to counseling based on their diploma marks. Once the eligibility criteria are met, the admission process continues through counseling based on the performance in LPUNEST or the qualifying exam.

LPU provides a streamlined and supportive path for lateral entry students, ensuring that they can transition smoothly into the B.Tech program.

I hope this helps.
