Overall: The college infrastructure is looking good from outside but from the inside the infrastructure is quite average for the ignou students. The faculty members are very rude and arrogant. The class rooms quiet big and clean, the library is available but only for regular student of that college not for ignou students the college sports ground are very big but not all sports equipment are available in that college.

Faculty: The faculty members are not supportive and helpful towards the students and they treat students very badly I asked a teacher about assignments but they tell me they don't know very rudely and arrogantly.

Yes it is possible to get admission to the M.A (History)Program at Lovely Professional University(LPU) with a 65% in your graduation, but it depends on a few factors such as the specific eligibility requirements for the program, the overall the demand and whether you meet other criteria set by the university.
