Dear Aspirant, Yes, without qualifying for an entrance exam of LPU or national level such as MAT/CAT/XAT, you cannot take admission to the MBA programme at LPU. In addition, you have to qualify for an interview conducted by LPU to fulfill the eligibility criteria. I have done MBA from LPU itself and qualified for both the LPU NEST exam and interview conducted by LPU. All the arrangements were really professionally managed. As of now, due to the pandemic, LPU has started online proctored exams which can be given remotely. The condition is, you must have a good internet connection, at least 3G. You can give exams and interviews on a laptop or tablet or mobile smartphone. I recommend you visit the LPU website for more details of the exam. I hope this helps
Thanks!

Hi, Do not worry there are multiple initiatives that are already taken at the university level and let me give you an overview for that.There are multiple measures taken at the University to ensure safety and security during COVID times.
They include :-
CAMPUS PREPAREDNESS:
Temperature and other checks at entrance points of the university.
All the members of faculty and staff are required to follow the COVID-19 related policies and requirements as stated by State/ Central Government.
Additional measures include:
Regular Cleaning & Disinfecting of workspace.
Restrictive entry in the campus for all outsiders.
24X7 medical and health support through in-house Campus Hospital.
Work from home option given to members having any health concerns.
INITIATIVES IN RESIDENTIAL FACILITIES: To ensure the safety of students who would be residing in hostels, university has planned following initiatives:
Regular Thermal scans for every individual entering the hostel premises.
Respiratory Masks to be worn by everyone at the time of leaving the room.
Sanitization of hostel rooms and other infrastructure facilities like common rooms etc. including play areas as per govt. norms

I inquired from the admission officers who told that LPU has followed all the directions especially of social distancing given by Central/State Government as of now and will also follow the same. LPU has taken some of the major initiatives for the well-being of students, staff and faculty:
1. Wearing of mask by all
2. Daily sanitation
3. Strict rules of movement
4. All the hostel rooms and buildings are sanitized and unnecessary movement of anyone is prohibited
5. No big gathering
6. Thermal scanners
Over an above nearly 4000+ cameras are installed in University for the safety and security of the student. Now, I believe if the institution is taking so much effort then probably there is no need to worry. I also overheard alot for LPU that LPU believes in delivering what it promises to deliver.
