Jalandhar: Believing strongly that deserving students be benefitted and any monetary constraint may not be hindrance for students to have access to quality education; Lovely Professional University is offering India’s largest private Scholarship and Financial Aid Scheme of more than Rs 100 Crore. Scholarship Scheme is up to one lakh per student per year, depending on the study Programme. This initiative of the University is to benefit the talented students to let them continue higher education of their choice. The last date to avail relevant scholarship is July 31, 2012. This scheme towards Scholarship is based on the percentage of marks in Eligibility Qualification (70% aggregate marks or above) or the relevant entrance national level test like AIEEE, CAT, MAT, XAT etc or State level . But in case of the Post-Graduation program scholarship has been also provided on the basis of the class 12th marks on the demand by the students that it is very difficult to score high in Graduation.
Also trying to provide opportunities to student with special talent like sports or other extracurricular activity LPU has also extended the scheme on the basis of the Performance in Sports, Cultural, Co-curricular, Social Service & Bravery acts.
In this regard, the Chancellor of LPU Mr. Ashok Mittal elaborated: “Deriving from University’s thematic slogan- ‘Transforming Education Transforming India’; LPU has drawn out its morale and has been regularly benefitting the students who have performed well in their qualifying examination. This year, too, LPU wanted to honour the students who performed well in their last examination and to help them grow with quality education. Year on year, this scholarship scheme for meritorious students is gaining tremendous response. Till now more than 20000 students have availed or availing scholarship at LPU”. He further said: “continuing with the trend from last year, this year also we are closing the scholarship policy on 31st July, 2012 and this year again we are happy that we are able to support such a large number of students with their academic pursuit.”
Suggala Prudhui Sa, one of the students from Khammam, Andhra Pradesh who has enrolled this year in the B. tech (Hons.) ECE program of LPU mentioned: “Even after scoring 93% in the board exam I was not sure if I will be able to pursue my dreams to become an Engineer, as my father is from the poor background. But, because of the LPU’s scholarship policy I can now pursue my dream.” Illustrative, Suggala Prudhui Sa has got a scholarship of Rs. 1 lakh every year from LPU.
