The duration depends on the programme you choose. LPU's B.Tech. lateral-entry programmes generally take 3 years, allowing eligible diploma holders or graduates to enter directly into the second year. Some other programmes have different durations; for example, BCA lateral entry may take 2 years. I would recommend checking the eligibility requirements and credit-transfer rules for your specific course. LPUNEST's Lateral Entry Test (LET) may also be applicable and can offer scholarship opportunities to eligible students.

As a student, I can say that the duration of lateral entry programs at Lovely Professional University (LPU) depends on the course. Generally, eligible students are admitted directly into the second year, allowing them to complete the remaining duration of the program instead of starting from the first year. This pathway helps diploma holders and other eligible candidates save time while continuing their education. The curriculum remains comprehensive and ensures that lateral entry students receive the same academic and practical exposure as regular students.

hi, Lateral entry courses at Lovely Professional University (LPU) allow eligible diploma holders or students with equivalent qualifications to join directly in the second year of a degree program. As a result, the duration of the course is typically reduced by one year compared to the regular program. For example, a regular 4-year B.Tech program can be completed in 3 years through lateral entry, while a 3-year undergraduate program may be completed in 2 years, depending on the course structure. The exact duration varies by program and eligibility criteria. Students should check the specific program details before applying.
