LPUPET

At Lovely Professional University (LPU), the Physical Education courses are designed to prepare students for careers in sports, fitness, health, and wellness management. The programs include undergraduate courses like B.Sc. in Health & Physical Education and Bachelor of Physical Education (B.P.Ed), as well as postgraduate programs like M.P.Ed, focusing on advanced training, research, and sports science. These courses cover areas such as exercise physiology, sports psychology, coaching techniques, kinesiology, yoga, nutrition, and fitness management, along with practical training, internships, and participation in sports events. LPU also conducts Physical Efficiency Tests (LPUPET) for admission to these programs to assess candidates' fitness, agility, and overall aptitude for physical education, ensuring that students are well-prepared for professional roles in sports coaching, wellness consultancy, physical education teaching, and sports administration. 

Yes — you can join Lovely Professional University (LPU) without appearing for LPUNEST in many cases, but it depends on the course and your credentials. LPU's own LPUNEST is the main entrance and scholarship test for many professional programs, yet LPUNEST is not compulsory for all admissions. For several UG and PG courses (like BA, BBA, B.Com, BCA, etc.) the university offers direct admission based on your qualifying exam marks (such as 10+2 or graduation results) without needing LPUNEST. Additionally, for technical and professional programs like B.Tech, MBA, Architecture or Law, LPU accepts valid national-level exam scores (such as JEE Main, CAT, MAT, XAT, CMAT, NATA, CUET, CLAT, etc.) instead of LPUNEST, which exempts you from taking their test. However, for some competitive programs and to maximise scholarship opportunities, taking LPUNEST is strongly recommended or may be required if you don't have equivalent national exam scores.

Yes — LPU does have an application fee associated with Physical Education admissions (for courses like *B.Sc. Health & Physical Education, BPES/Physical Education & Sports, B.P.Ed/M.P.Ed etc.). To apply and appear in the Physical Efficiency Test (LPUPET) (part of the admission process for physical education-related programs), candidates must pay a fee to register and get the entrance/exam kit. The cost for this LPUPET/LPUNEST application (which covers the required application and exam kit) is typically around ₹1,000 for the soft copy and ₹1,500 for the printed kit. This payment is part of the process used to complete the application for physical education admissions.)

Lovely Professional University (LPU) eligibility criteria vary by program, but in general, candidates applying for undergraduate courses must have passed 10+2 or an equivalent examination from a recognised board, with required subjects and minimum marks depending on the course (for example, Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics for B.Tech). For postgraduate programs, applicants need a relevant bachelor's degree with the prescribed minimum percentage. Diploma courses usually require passing Class 10 or 10+2, while PhD programs require a master's degree in the related field along with an entrance test and interview. Admission to many programs is based on LPUNEST or accepted national-level entrance exams, and exact eligibility details can differ by course and academic year.

The LPU PET (Physical Efficiency Test) is conducted only at the Lovely Professional University campus in Phagwara, Punjab — there are no external or regional test centres for this sports-based entrance evaluation. Candidates who register for LPUPET choose their preferred exam date/slot, but must appear offline on the university grounds to take part in the physical activities and assessments specified in the test structure. Your admit card will list the exact venue details within the campus, and you must report there on your scheduled date with your documents and sports kit to participate. 

Since LPUPET measures physical fitness and performance in events like sprinting, jumping, and running, it cannot be conducted remotely or at distant exam centres — all candidates must travel to LPU's Phagwara campus (on Jalandhar-Delhi GT Road in Punjab) for the test.

Lovely Professional University (LPU) uses a grading system based on CGPA (Cumulative Grade Point Average) to evaluate student performance. In this system, marks obtained in each subject are converted into letter grades, and each letter corresponds to a grade point on a 10-point scale. The most common grades and their points are: O = 10 (Outstanding), A+ = 9, A = 8, B+ = 7, B = 6, C = 5, D = 4. Grades like E, F, or G typically mean fail, backlog, or re-appear, and carry zero grade points. 

Percentage equivalents often align approximately with these letters (for example, O roughly corresponds to 90 % and above, A+ ~ 80–89 %, A ~ 70–79 %, B+ ~ 60–69 %, B ~ 50–59 %, and C/D ~ 40–49 %, although exact distribution can vary with relative grading). 

To calculate CGPA, you multiply each subject's grade point by its credit value, add these products, and divide by the total credits. A higher CGPA means better overall performance. Many programs require a minimum CGPA (often around 5.0) to pass or graduate, and converting CGPA to percentage for external purposes is sometimes done by multiplying CGPA by 10.
