An LU official said that the increase in the number of applications from foreign students will help LU score higher national and international level rankings in which extra marks are awarded to an institute for having a rich student diversity.

Also, the university will score well in public perception criteria as a good image amongst academic institutions is what has made LU a choice of foreign students.

Also, over Rs 1 crore fees is received from these students which helps LU in managing its financial challenges.

LU spokesperson Durgesh Srivastava said, “The main reason behind the surge in foreign student application is the University’s research work getting international recognition with a number of our teachers getting patents, producing high impact factor research papers, prestigious fellowships and international projects.Also, an A++ grade by the National Assessment Accreditation Council has put a stamp on University’s academic excellence.”
