A scholarship is the fastest way to cut your online degree cost, and most LPU Online applicants qualify for at least one scheme. Here is what is on offer in 2026, who qualifies and exactly how to claim it.
Merit scholarship
Based on the percentage in your last qualifying exam (12th for UG, graduation for PG). Higher percentage bands unlock larger waivers, going up to 30% of the total program fee. You need self-attested marksheets at the time of application.
Defence scholarship
For serving and retired Defence, Paramilitary and Police personnel and their dependents. Requires a service certificate, discharge book or dependent card.
Government employee scholarship
Central and state government employees and their immediate family members qualify. An employee ID plus a department letter is usually enough.

Divyaang scholarship
Candidates with 40% or more certified disability receive a dedicated fee concession. Submit a valid UDID or medical board certificate.
Sports scholarship
For national and state-level sports achievers. Attach the participation or medal certificate issued by a recognized federation.
How to claim your scholarship
Declare the scheme in the application form, upload the supporting certificate at the document stage, and wait for the revised fee quote before making payment. If you pay the full fee first, the waiver cannot be adjusted afterwards.
Scholarship plus discount stacking
The scholarship applies on the program fee, and the current intake discount applies separately, so an eligible candidate can land well below the published price. A counselor can compute your exact net payable in one call.
