This resolution of extending the admission deadlines, has been undertaken due to the difficulties gripping the students right now, owing to the ferocity of the second wave of the pandemic that has halted regular classes, cancelled examinations and so on. It is also expected that the entrance tests for undergraduate programs at LU, will be held in the month of June, if the situation eases out till then.

Students who wish to apply, can do so by accessing the university's official website. Further, the university also launched a technical helpline in order to help students with their queries and for further assistance, applicants can also email the officials at support@otpl.co.in. Additionally, students who need help regarding their admissions, can contact the university by writing to luadmission2021@gmail.com.
