The average salaries of these graduates are nearly USD 108,000

Yes, one can apply to LPU NEST (Lovely Professional University National Entrance and Scholarship Test) to more than one phase.

LPU NEST is also conducted in several rounds on an annual basis and a student is permitted to accept more than one exam appearance which he/she thinks can enhance their result or scholarship chances.

To each phase you want to attempt, you have to fill out a separate application form.

Your highest score of all your attempts is admitted and harnessed in the awarding of funds.

This decreases your chances of not being able to go ahead with the competition or being unsatisfied with the outcome or scholarship after a single phase as it allows you to do better or another attempt.
