Being a student of LPU, I can provide the perks I received since I chose it. LPU has a better NIRF Ranking as compared to SHUATS. LPU was ranked 27 as per NIRF 2023. LPU also provides ample opportunities for internships and has a good placement track record. T

LPU also has an updated curriculum, industry exposure, and also partners with top organizations to help their students. I have seen LPU offering placements to all its students from UG to PhD. The highest package for an agriculture PhD Student was 1 Crore per annum.

The top recruiting companies were Dhanuka, Reliance Retail, Syngenta, Bio Seed, Nestle, etc. The highest package was 19.25 LPA and the average package was 3.4 LPA in my current placement session. All LPU students also get placement classes to help them and prepare for future.

LPU - Lovely Professional University offers a four year BSc Agriculture degree that helps students get a broad understanding of Agriculture and Allied Science.

The students, by the end of this course, get expertise through well planned solutions and on-field implementation. The fees for the BSc agriculture course at LPU is INR 1,20,000 per semester. The exam fees for each semester is INR 4,500. 

No, scholarships are not offered based on 10th marks for a BSc in Agriculture at LPU. Scholarships are given based on the marks of the last qualifying exam, i.e. 10+2.

Yes, you are eligible to pursue a BSc agriculture course from LPU. The LPU’s official website states that you need a minimum of 60% marks in 10+2 to apply for the LPU BSc agriculture course.

I would recommend you also take the LPUNEST exam to get a scholarship. If you perform well on the test, you will be able to secure a scholarship.

LPU provides industry insights and trends to students through its BSc Agriculture curriculum, equipping them with the skills to innovate through state-of-the-art facilities like playhouses, beehives, horticulture labs, and dedicated agronomy and dairy production farms. These trends in the BSc Agriculture curriculum can help address the critical challenges facing farmers and contribute to advancements in agriculture for the nation.

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.
