Is lpu is approved by AICTE ? What type of scholarship they are giving
AICTE approval is not required for a university to run a course in technical education as has been held by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in its judgment CWP2056 of 1999 titled BHARATHIDASAN UNIVERSITY & ANR. V/S ALL INDIA COUNCIL FOR TECHNICAL EDUCATION & ORS, and various other cases.

Dear Arpit,
LPU does not require an AICTE approval since it is already approved by UGC, a statutory body of the Government of India. In a major blow to AICTE, Supreme Court has ruled that an AICTE approval is not required for private colleges running University-approved programs.
If you are studying in a deemed university or in CAMPUS of the university(not in its affiliated colleges) approved by UGC, then even if your course is not approved byAICTE, it will not create any problem. This is because universities do not requireAICTE approval compulsorily.
Lovely Professional University strongly believes in the fact that monetary constraints should not be an obstacle for a student to have access to quality education. So, the University extends Scholarship Scheme to students on various parameters. Scholarship can be availed in all the Programmes of the University, ranging from Diploma to Ph.D. Students have been awarded with scholarship worth Rs. 100+ crores in last year only.
Students get different scholarships as per their performances in the academic as well as in other activities.The scholarship is also available on the basis of:
- Due to current situation LPU has introduced COVID-19 FRONTLINE Scholarship scheme worth Rs 20 Crores, to honor the selfless contribution of the COVID-19 frontline warriors (I. e. Doctors, Nurses, Para-medical staff, Civic staff, Police personnel and many more) during the time of pandemic breakout through a special scholarship to their wards.
- Percentage in Qualifying Exam
- Performance or Rank in National Level Test
- Percentage in Sports , Cultural , R&D, Co-curricular Activities (CCA) , Social Services and National Bravery Award
- Special Scholarship for Toppers of Education Board
- Fee Concession for Defense, Central Armed Police Forces (CAPF) personnel and their dependents.
- Scholarship for Orphan Applicants
- Scholarship for Person with Certain Disability
As per my knowledge,Whatever scholarships you are awarded at the time of admission,it will be continue till the last semester,But it can be cancelled in case of any serious misconduct or in disciplinary action committed by the student or poor academic performance.

Dear student,

Hope this helps
