Lovely Professional University has also framed a ‘Free Education’ policy to ease the financial burden that so often comes along with Spinal Cord Injury (SCI). From the session (2016-17) onwards, LPU has been providing 100% scholarship to students affected with spinal cord injuries. SCI affected students are not only be given a total fee waiver but free hostel accommodation and food also. Moreover, special ramps have also been constructed outside the classrooms and hostels where they can attend classes and stay. In addition, their spouses and children can also avail a 50% scholarship at LPU.
