To join a B.Tech program in Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) at most universities in India, including Lovely Professional University (LPU), you typically need to meet certain eligibility criteria and go through an application process. Here’s a general guide:
- Eligibility Criteria
Educational Qualification: You must have completed 10+2 (or an equivalent) from a recognized board with a strong foundation in Physics, Mathematics, and Chemistry. The minimum aggregate percentage required may vary, usually around 60%. For a candidate, who has not studied English as a subject, the condition of English may be waived off provided the candidate in his qualifying exam has studied in English medium or an equivalent subject.(5% relaxation to North-East states and Sikkim candidates or Defence Personnel and their Dependents or Wards of Kashmiri Migrants)
Entrance Exam: Some universities require scores from national or state-level entrance exams, such as JEE Main, while others have their own entrance exams. LPU has its own entrance exam called LPUNEST (LPU National Entrance and Scholarship Test), which also provides scholarships based on scores.
- Application Process
Register for LPUNEST (if applicable): To apply at LPU, register and appear for the LPUNEST exam if required. You can apply online on the LPU website.
Filling out the Application: Complete the online application form, providing details about your academic background, personal information, and exam scores.
Document Submission: Upload necessary documents, including your 10+2 mark sheets, entrance exam scorecards, ID proofs, etc.
Counseling and Seat Allotment: If you meet the cut-off for LPUNEST or any other criteria, you may proceed to counseling for seat allotment based on your rank or score.
- Admission and Payment of Fees
Once your seat is allotted, complete the admission formalities, including fee payment, to secure your spot in the B.Tech CSE program.
- Scholarships
LPU offers scholarships based on LPUNEST scores, academic performance, and other criteria. Scholarships can reduce your tuition fees, so it’s worth checking what you may qualify for.
