LPU is a good private university known for its placements and excellent career opportunities. I enrolled in the B.Com course at LPU. Overall, my experience at the LPU University has been mixed.
Starting with the application and admission process at LPU, the university conducts LPUNEST to grant admission to various courses. You just have to register on the official website of LPUNEST and the applicant can attempt the exam conveniently at home in a remotely proctored mode or at any test centre of your choice. The LPU application fee is INR 1000 for Boys and INR 500 for Girls.
Once the student is finally admitted to the university, he or she has to attend the orientation sessions held at LPU for the respective department. After the induction programmes are over, classes are held regularly, and students can also apply to join various clubs and societies. There are about more than 18 student organizations available with a total of 10,000+ members engaged in different activities at LPU Jalandhar.
Talking about placements, LPU invites top MNCs to hire students across multiple courses. The highest package at LPU is usually in Crores and offered to B.Tech students. During the recent placement drive, the highest package for B.Com at LPU was INR 18 LPA and around 350 B.Com students were selected by 200+ recruiters. Some of the companies that visit LPU are Wipro, Bosch, Amazon, Tech Mahindra, Cognizant, etc.
LPU Curriculum is updated with the latest technologies and students undergo various types of academic sessions. If any student wants to initiate a startup, he or she can also get seed money from the university after submitting the proposal.
LPU Campus is huge and you will not be able to explore the entire university in one day, to be honest. The university has numerous facilities, like an ATM, a Salon, Food Quotes, a Mall, a 6-storey library, sports complexes, etc.
Students can also choose to stay in LPU Hostels while applying for admission. Overall, I found LPU as an apt choice to pursue higher studies.
