distance education MCA programmes, after graduation applicant takes admission in MCA but after 1 year he is awarded PGDCA, and after 2 yrs. M.Sc. (Computer Science) and after 3 years MCA. So such a student might have PGDCA as well as M.Sc. (Computer

basis and the claim for Scholarship / EDB can be made only at the time of filing Application for Admissions or before the date prescibed by the University subject to the last date of Admission with Scholarship for the concerned Programme. In case applicant has opted
Scholarship of one type (i.e. on one basis) or has not opted for Scholarship at all, then change in the Scholarship type (basis) so claimed will not be allowed and claim for the Scholarship/ EDB will also not be allowed at later stage.

year) along with other benefits offered by LPU.

from total applicable fees (including Examination fee and charges for residential/transport/food /laundry facility, If any, subject to maximum for a non-AC three seater residential facility). Total Applicable fee will be excluding any EDB and Scholarship amount offered by
University.
Example:
Fee of B.Tech Programme is Rs. 89500/- per semester (i.e. 1,79,000/- per year), Exam fee is Rs. 3000 (for two semesters) and the hostel fee for two Seater Non-AC (Boys) is Rs. 69500/- per academic session and charges for food faciliy and laundry are Rs. 26000/-

the maximum entitlement for scholarship offered by LPU for such student shall be Rs. 65,450/- per year, obtained by subtracting Scholarship from Outer agency i.e. 2,00,000/- from total fee of the programme i.e. Rs. 2,65,450/- (1,79,000/- + 54,500/- + 26,000/- + 2,950/-
+ 3000/- = 2,65,450/- ). Important point is that for calculating total fee of the student, fee of 2-Seater hostel i.e. Rs. 69500/- per year has not been considered rather Rs. 54,500/- per year has been considered as fixed as maximum limit by the University.
