Yes, you can pursue an MBA at Lovely Professional University even if you have not appeared for CAT, MAT, or XAT; LPU conducts its own entrance test (LPUNEST) for eligibility and scholarship purposes, and if you meet the minimum graduation percentage criteria (generally around 55%), you can apply through the university admission process and appear for LPUNEST instead of national-level exams, after which admission is finalized based on eligibility and document verification.
