Sinhaaditya358's Review on Lovely Professional University- LPU Jalandhar

I did not pick up any internship from the university but was doing some internships on my own during the course of my study. There are a lot of companies that hire from our university, product-based or service-based companies. In the case of BCA, we were told that the highest salary that a student got was 18LPA as CTC. The alumni network is not good.

There are a lot of hostels at the university. For boys, there are 8 Boys' Hostels, and Boys' Apartments are also there. For girls, there are 6 Girls' Hostels with their apartments as well. For the hostels, the fee ranges from 85,000 for one year in a 4 seater AC room to 1,80,000 for a 1 seater apartment in AC. There are a lot of PGs outside the university for the convenience of the students, and they are available for cheap rates also. The cost of PGs varies from 3000 to 8000 per month. The hostel food is okay type inside the university, but one can have food from a lot of food kiosks available inside the campus. In a mess, one meal costs 60 rupees. The quality of the infrastructure is excellent in the university.

The eligibility criteria for BCA is the student should be 12th pass with an aggregate of 50%, and having a science background is preferred. I took LPUNEST, which is the LPU's exam for scholarship. There were no such cutoff marks for the exam, but the scholarships that were given were based on the slabs.

The daily routine depends on the type of course and the semester in which the student is studying. For us, in the 4th semester, the classes used to start at 9 am and end at 5 pm almost every day. The quality and the method of teaching are good inside the university. The mode of conduct of the classes is A/V from the projector. The overall experience in the college is quite good as the faculty is young and helpful.

The standard course fee for one semester for me when I joined in the 2020 fall was 78,000, but after giving the scholarship exam, I got a 40% scholarship and my fees git down to 48,200 per sem. There are a lot of scholarships available for someone trying to get into LPU. Some of them include scholarships based on the 10th marksheet, on the 12th marksheet, If you have accomplished something in sports like at the state or national level or if you are a dependent on army personnel or CAPF personnel. Approximately everyone gets a scholarship in LPU, ranging from 10% to 50%, depending on the type of course. Loans are needed for those who cannot afford to pay the sem fees. Th procedure is very simple, and the university officials are helpful in that area.

There are a lot of student organisations that are running in the university. There are 100+ organisations related to all aspects ranging from coding to national service to designing. There are a lot of events in the university, but the main ones include One India and One World, which show the cultural diversity in the university from around the globe. College life, in general, is very vibrant and exciting as well.
