LPUNEST 2023 Scholarship

Scholarship Categories: Scholarships are offered to applicants in any of the following categories on the basis of their performance:

• Qualification of Eligibility (such as 10+2 for undergraduate programs and graduation for PG programs)
• The Admission and Scholarship Exam for LPU: LPUNEST
• Some national level examinations, such as JEE Mains, NEET, UCEED, CAT, MAT, GATE, GPAT, etc.

Scholarship Brackets: Three Scholarship Brackets (Brackets 1, 2 and 3) are defined for each category listed above. Each bracket symbolizes specific criteria (such as qualification examination scores) that an applicant must meet in order to fall into that particular bracket. As it proceeds, the criteria in each bracket decrease and so do the scholarships. Therefore the applicants fulfilling the Bracket-1 specification get the highest scholarship and the students in Bracket-2 or 3 get a relatively smaller scholarship.

Scholarship Different Stages: The amount of the scholarship also depends on the phase of admission to the university by the applicant. LPU admissions take place in various phases, which are bifurcations of the Admission Time Period. Phase 2 begins as early as January 2023 and continues through to the end of April 2023. Subsequent phases (Phase 2, 3, 4) are carried out only if the seats in the programme concerned remain vacant. With each passing phase, the amount of the scholarship decreases and no scholarship is offered (if carried out) in Phase 4.

Amount of the Scholarship in Various Stages and Brackets: The amount/percentage of the scholarship varies according to the following table:

–	Bracket–1	Bracket–2	Bracket–3
Phase – 1	50%	40%	30%
Phase – 2	40%	30%	20%
Phase – 3	30%	20%	10%

Scholarship Brackets Details: The following are detailed scholarship brackets for different categories:

Qualification for Eligibility: In addition to the Eligibility Qualification, a scholarship will also be offered for Lateral Entry Programs on the basis of the qualification prior to the Eligibility Qualification. For example, on the basis of a diploma (Eligibility Qualification) or 10th (Qualification prior to Diploma), someone seeking admission to B.Tech (Lateral Entry) can apply for a scholarship.

LPUNEST: Cut-offs are determined by the University for each scholarship bracket and the scholarships are offered as listed in Table 1 accordingly. Refer to the university website http://www.lpu.in to learn about the tentative cut-off for different programmes and the approximate number of students in different categories.

In addition, the Scholarship is also available on the basis of:
