Colleges in India

Yes, Chandigarh University has a number of merit based scholarships, which students who enroll the Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) programme get upon completion of their 12 th grade. The most widespread type is the scholarship offered by CUCET, on which students getting higher marks in the entrance examination may gain large amounts of tuition-fee waived, and sometimes 100 percent. Besides CUCET, there are also scholarships given on the basis of good performance in Class 12 board quality and ranks received in JEE Main. The purpose of these scholarships is to reward academically excellent students and to ensure that the cost of engineering education in general is reduced. Students tend to be required to have a good performance at every semester to remain eligible to receive the scholarship throughout the course.

At Lovely Professional University, the hostel fee is usually fixed based on the type of room and facilities you choose. However, there are a few practical ways students sometimes reduce the overall cost.

One common option is to choose a more basic hostel category, such as a room with more occupants or without extra facilities, which usually costs less than premium or single rooms. Another way some students manage expenses is by availing merit-based scholarships through exams like LPUNEST, which mainly reduces tuition fees and indirectly lowers the total financial burden.

Apart from that, some students also consider staying in nearby PG accommodations outside the campus, which can sometimes be cheaper than hostel facilities depending on the location and amenities. However, many students still prefer the campus hostel because it is more convenient and closer to academic blocks.

Yes, with a rank of 14,146 in LPUNEST (2018), you can generally get admission in B.Tech Computer Science and Engineering at Lovely Professional University. LPUNEST rank is mainly used for admission consideration and scholarships, and many students with similar ranks have secured seats in CSE depending on the admission phase and seat availability.

CSE is one of the most popular branches, but LPU usually has multiple sections and specializations under the CSE stream, which increases the number of available seats. So if you meet the basic eligibility criteria in your 12th with Physics and Mathematics, your LPUNEST rank should allow you to apply and confirm admission in the CSE program.

At Lovely Professional University, students generally do get time to use the gym and sports facilities, even though the campus has a large number of students. The university has multiple sports complexes and gym areas, and they usually operate for long hours so students can visit either early morning or evening after classes. Because the facilities are spread across the campus, most students are able to manage regular workouts if they plan their schedule well.

Regarding teaching, the quality can vary slightly depending on the department and the individual faculty member, but many teachers; especially in technical branches like CSE; focus on practical learning through labs, projects, and presentations. Campus life is quite active with technical clubs, cultural events, and sports activities, so students usually get a balanced academic and social experience. Yes, the classrooms are air-conditioned.

Lovely Professional University is actually included in the National Institutional Ranking Framework rankings released by the Ministry of Education (India) (earlier MHRD) as on the 49th position.

Sometimes a university may have strong infrastructure, facilities, and placement opportunities but may score differently in areas like research output or perception surveys, which also carry significant weight in the ranking methodology. Because of this, the position of a university can change from year to year. Despite that, many students still choose LPU for programs like engineering because of the campus resources, industry exposure, and placement ecosystem available during their studies.
