LPU - Lovely Professional University

LPUNEST is not the only route for B.Tech admission at LPU. For the 2026 admission cycle, the eligibility for many B.Tech programmes accepts LPUNEST, JEE Main or CUET, subject to the required Class 12 marks and programme conditions. So, if a valid JEE Main or CUET route applies, appearing for LPUNEST may not be necessary. The exact requirement can vary by specialisation, so checking the criteria for the chosen B.Tech programme is important.

Yes. You can pursue a standalone BBA at LPU without doing an integrated BBA+MBA or any other additional degree. The BBA is a separate undergraduate programme, so you can complete it and then either work or pursue an MBA later. 

LPU is a good option for management studies like BBA, particularly if you want a mix of classroom learning, practical exposure, industry interaction and opportunities to develop business skills. The BBA curriculum is designed around areas such as management, business operations and entrepreneurship, giving students a foundation for careers or further studies like an MBA. 

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.

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.
