What LPU Online students have to say...

I have successfully completed my MCA through LPU Online. Back in 2014, I was an alumna of LPU, but after getting married in 2014, I had to pause my education. However, in 2020, I got to know about LPU Online and seized the opportunity to continue my studies. The experience has been truly remarkable and I am immensely grateful for it. From the depths of my heart, I extend my heartfelt thanks to LPU Online for making this possible.
