    Hello,
    Hostel is better as you can make more friends and can take help in group projects and group studies. Hostel room is also cheaper as compare to the apartment ones. Basic facilities like mess, laundry etc. Are available here whereas in apartment you will have to do all on your own. Apartments have more facilities than hostels and the fees for that is also more as compared to hostel. All the best.

    At Lovely Professional University (LPU), both apartments and hostels offer on-campus accommodation, but they differ in terms of privacy, facilities, and overall lifestyle. Hostels are more traditional and usually come with shared rooms (2, 3, or more occupants), common washrooms (in some types), and fixed dining options in mess halls. They're ideal for students who prefer a more community-based living environment and want to stay closely connected to peers. On the other hand, apartments at LPU are more modern and offer greater privacy and comfort. They typically include attached washrooms, modular furniture, and sometimes even a small

    Hello, In a hostel, you can opt for either Air Cooler or Air Conditioner. And, there will be an Iron B.Ed in hostel rooms. But in apartments, you will have the Air Conditioner only and there will be a wooden box B.Ed. Apartments are more spacious and cleaner. Charges for apartments will be more than hostel charges.

    At LPU, apartments offer more privacy, attached washrooms, and a homely environment, making them ideal for students who prefer independence. Hostel rooms, on the other hand, are more community-based with options like shared or individual occupancy and common facilities. Apartments are generally considered better for comfort and personal space, while hostels suit those looking for a more social and budget-friendly setup.

After submitting the application form, students upload required documents and pay the admission fee.
