There are two ways to look at this. LPU NEST is a compulsory entrance exam to seek admission to any of the engineering, MBA or any other courses at LPU. You can skip to appear for LPU NEST if you have qualified any national level entrance exam for the course you are applying to. If you have a JEE Main score for BTech or CAT/CMAT etc for MBA you can get direct admission at LPU.

However, in my opinion there are some advantages of appearing for the LPU NEST. If you qualify for it, you will eligible for a scholarship. The admission process is also very simple as everything is uploaded to the portal when you apply for LPU NEST and you just have to get it verified once selected.

LPUNEST is mandatory for some of the courses and is the minimum eligibility criteria as well, that you must fulfil. But for some courses it is only a scholarship test. So it is beneficial to appear for it as it will improve your scholarship as well.

Yes, you can get admission in LPU without the LPU Nest (Lovely professional University National Entrance and Scholarship Test) based on your JEE Rank or your board marks. Based on your rank or percentage, you could also be offered a scholarship.

The procedure for this method is as follows:

Log on to the LPU website and search for “LPU in a city”.
Search for your city and look for the person responsible for admission in LPU in that particular area. Contact him via his/her contact details provided. He will brief you about the admission process and the fees. The prospectus and induction schedule on admission would also be informed by him.
In these cases, you need to pay some initial amount to get admission and then pay the remaining before the specified date.
18001024431 is the Toll-Free Number specially maintained for the same. If you have any queries, you can call between 9 am and 5 pm weekdays.
But remember it is not available for all programmes as some of them mandate applying through LPU Nest.

Still, it is recommended for a student to apply via LPU Nest since it has many benefits in case you pass the exam. Scholarships for the top 30-40% students and the option to avail admission in many more domains which might be not available in case the student didn’t appear for LPU Nest.
