Overview

Lovely Professional University strongly believes in the fact that monetary constraints should not be an obstacle for a student to have access to quality education. So, the University extends Scholarship Scheme which is an initiative by the University to cultivate the talent of students that may be hidden due to financial constraints. Scholarship can be availed in all the Programmes of the University, ranging from Diploma to Ph.D

 

Scholarship Categories: Scholarships are awarded to candidates based on their performance on any of the following categories:

  • Eligibility Qualification
  • LPU’s Entrance and Scholarship Test : LPUNEST
  • Certain National Level Entrance Tests (UCEED, NIFT Entrance Exam, NID DAT, CEED)

 

  • Scholarship Brackets: For each category mentioned, three brackets of Scholarship (Bracket 1, 2 and 3) are defined. Each bracket has its own respective criteria which need to be met for availing the applicable scholarship. Therefore, the students meeting the requirement of Bracket- 1 gets the highest Scholarship and those in Bracket – 2 or 3 gets relatively lesser scholarship.

 

  • Scholarship Phases: The amount of Scholarship also depends on the Phase in which the candidate takes admission in the university. Phase – I starts as early as December 2021 and continues till end of April 2022. The subsequent phases are conducted only if the seats in the concerned Programme remain vacant.
