Which college is best for BBA: LPU or Apeejay College, Jalandhar?

Question

Priya Mahajan · Answer

Hi LPU would a college I would vouch for. LPU has years of establishment, ranking, exposure, academics and placements. LPU has an edge in terms of curriculum, exposures, internships and placements. Mittal School of Business is among the first 10 institutions in India to get ACBSP (USA) accreditation. LPU is ranked No. 2 among Indian B-Schools in 'Outreach and Inclusivity' by NIRF 2018 ranking released by MHRD, Government of India. Candidates who want to appear for the different exams can also have their exam preparation when they opt for BBA, as the option which you take for cracking a national level exam is embedded in the BBA curriculum as I know about LPU where this is done. So that you are ready not only for placements but also for national level exams. Best placements: LPU alumni are working in the best of the MNCs across the Globe like Google, Facebook and Apple. International Companies like Hyatt (USA), Ritz Carlton (USA), Adani Wilmar (Africa), Altruist (Africa), Al-Rakha (Dubai), Dharam Consultancy (USA) selected LPU students for International locations. Rest, not pretty sure about the other institute. It has to be LPU due such reasons. Good Luck!!

Hi Rachel, There are a few basic differences: 1. Apeejay is a PTU affiliated college, so it is bound by the obsolete curriculum of the university, while LPU is a full fledged university in itself, which has research wing and industry consultations to design the syllabi. 2. The affiliate colleges are bound by a large number of restrictions while Universities are not, this expands the horizons 3. Teaching pedagogy, LPU has over the years mastered the experiential learning pedagogy for its students, it has been possible due to vast intellectual resources at its disposal. 4. Placements: LPU has excelled beyond the comprehension of other players in this parameter ! One can safely say that LPU attracts more companies from all over the world than the student strength of Apeejay. Finally I will quota some placement figures of BBA students at LPU which are far more than even the MBA students of Apeejay or other local colleges: De Shaw : 18 LPA, Trident 15 LPA, Federal Bank 10.2 LPA ! Hope this clears your query DVD

The affiliate colleges are bound by a large number of restrictions while Universities are not, this expands the horizons 3. Teaching pedagogy, LPU has over the years mastered the experiential learning pedagogy for its students, it has been possible due to vast intellectual resources at its disposal. 4. Placements: LPU has excelled beyond the comprehension of other players in this parameter ! One can safely say that LPU attracts more companies from all over the world than the student strength of Apeejay. Finally I will quota some placement figures of BBA students at LPU which are far more than even the MBA students of Apeejay or other local colleges: De Shaw: 18 LPA, Trident 15 LPA, Federal Bank 10.2 LPA. I hope you understand what to do.
