No, Punjabi University Patiala does not offer direct admissions and does not reserve any seats under special management quota. As such students must get admission purely on merit alone with national, state and competitive entrance exam such as JEE Mains, GATE, or Qualifying Exam scores being required for admissions to the different programmes of the university.

Students who wish to get admissions to Punjabi University Patiala can apply online through the institute page. However there are no offline applications as such only online applications are accepted for the PU Patiala programmes. While the selection process is merit and entrance based. Students must also complete the course eligibility and pay application fees before applying.

As a fresher, life at Punjabi University Patiala is quite good. Students receive a warm welcome from their seniors and teachers. Those students who plan to stay in the university hostel feel happy staying there. 

Also the university has an Anti-Ragging Cell with the college premises having strict laws against the student found guilty of any act such as abusing, assaulting, threatening, teasing and embarrassment to new students, hence survival at Punjabi University Patiala for freshers is as comfortable as for the seniors.

Honestly speaking, chances are very low.

With 75% in boards and 26 percentile in JEE Main, getting admission to Thapar University (TIET) for BTech is unlikely, even in lower-demand branches. Thapar's cut-offs are usually much higher, especially for JEE-based admissions.

You might have a very slim chance only if:

  • Seats remain vacant in later counselling rounds

  • You're open to non-core / less demanded branches

  • You have Punjab domicile or reserved category

All these universities LPU, Chandigarh University, Sharda, GL Bajaj, and Galgotias offer decent academics and placement opportunities, but many students feel LPU stands out for its scale, recruiter network, and structured placement support. LPU tends to bring a wider variety of companies on campus and invests heavily in training, internships, and skill development, which can translate into more consistent opportunities. CU is also competitive, while Sharda, GL Bajaj, and Galgotias have growing placement records. Overall, if you're looking at a mix of exposure, infrastructure, and placement ecosystem, LPU is often seen as the more compr

The LPU application form fee is usually ₹1,000 for the LPUNEST kit if you choose the soft copy. If you opt for the printed LPUNEST kit, the fee is around ₹1,500. This fee is paid at the time of registration and is required to apply for most courses. The amount is the same for boys and girls.

  1. MBA eligibility is NOT based on your IPE/AP (12th) marks. For the MBA (including Business Analytics & Big Data) at Thapar University, the university requires a bachelor's degree with minimum marks — not 12th/Intermediate (IPE/AP) scores.

  2. Minimum Graduation Requirement: You must have at least 50 % aggregate marks in your undergraduate degree (45 % for SC/ST/PwD) to be eligible for MBA admission.

  3. Entrance Exam Matters: Admission is based on valid MBA entrance scores (like CMAT/NMAT/CAT/XAT/MAT/GMAT/SNAP or the university's own TMAT). Your board marks (IPE/AP) do not directly affect MBA admission.

  4. Summary: So there's no specific IPE/AP mar

  1. CMAT Cutoff: For the MBA in Business Analytics & Big Data, the general category cutoff is around 75 percentile in CMAT to get shortlisted for further rounds.
  2. NMAT Cutoff: The NMAT score cutoff for the same specialization is typically around 50-55 score range (approximately 150 in some reporting scales) for general candidates.
  3. Selection Stage: Clearing the entrance cutoffs (CMAT/NMAT) only makes you eligible for the next stage — group discussion / personal interview — which also influences final admission. (General admission process insight)
  4. Note on Trends: Cutoffs can slightly vary year-to-year based on applicant pool strength, exam d

LPU requires a basic seat reservation fee which costs Rs. 10,000 for first-time registration or seat confirmation during the admission process. This fee structure comes with refund terms according to their policy yet different academic programs and scholarship options have minor fee variations.
