I am currently a final year BSc. Agriculture student at LPU. 

There is no installment system for payment of fees at LPU. The fees are taken semester-wise. At the time of admission, you’ll have to pay the semester 1 tuition fee and examination fee, and the prospectus fee. The hostel fee is paid for a year, and not a semester. 

I would suggest you talk to the admission office of LPU over the phone in case you are going through some financial difficulties. You can take provisional admission by paying INR 10,000 to secure your seat. This is not a separate payment, it is a part of the total course fee. I would also recommend you look for the scholarship program of LPU, which can be availed upon clearing LPUNEST.
