Dear reader,
LPU is great choice for taking admissions in these courses.
Both MBA and BBA+MBA integrated courses are available at LPU, with different cost structures for each. Since the BBA+MBA integrated course is a single, continuous curriculum, it is typically more affordable. Compared to applying for the BBA and MBA separately, you save money on application fees and entrance exam costs. Since the solo MBA programme is a specialised two-year postgraduate degree, the cost is greater. For the most precise and current information on fees and scholarships, it is advisable to visit LPU's official website.
