Colleges in India

50% is the eligibility requirement, not necessarily the final admission cutoff. If Galgotias does not publish a closing cutoff for M.Sc. Mathematics, I wouldn't claim that a particular percentage guarantees admission.

For comparison, the university's older published fee document lists M.Sc. Mathematics at ₹46,000 tuition + ₹10,000 examination fee per year, but you should use the current 2026–27 fee schedule before paying.

Both have their own strengths, but for students looking at overall career exposure, LPU has an edge. The curriculum is more industry-oriented, with practical learning, updated skills and opportunities to work on real projects. Its placement ecosystem also covers a wide range of companies and career areas. Poornima University can still be considered depending on the course, but for broader industry exposure and career-focused learning, LPU looks like the stronger option.

No, fee here is income-based. If your family's annual income is less than 1 Lacs then you've to pay zero tuition fee, and one-third of your family's annual income is between 1 to 5 lakhs.

For BTech CSE, I would choose Thapar over LPU if you get CSE at Thapar and can comfortably afford it. Thapar has the stronger engineering reputation and generally better peer group and placement outcomes.

For scholarships, LPU is clearly more generous and easier to access: its 2026 CSE scholarships can reach 50% through LPUNEST, with additional scholarship routes based on academic performance. Thapar's major 2026 merit scholarships are more competitive and primarily tied to JEE Main rank, with tuition-fee waivers for selected students.

So: Thapar = better CSE choice. LPU = better scholarship opportunities.

For BSc Forensic Science at LPU, you generally need to complete 12th with the required Science subjects, apply through LPU's admission portal, meet the programme eligibility criteria, and complete the required entrance/admission process. The exact eligibility and entrance requirement can vary by admission year.

If you have a significantly better college option, choose it over LPU. Otherwise, LPU CSE is a reasonable choice, especially with a good scholarship. Don't reject LPU based on rumours; judge it by your actual alternatives, fees and placement outcomes.
