LASU Extends Post-UTME Registration Deadline for 2026/2027 Admission Exercise

Lagos State University (LASU) has announced an extension of the registration deadline for its 2026/2027 Post-UTME and Direct Entry admission screening exercise. The decision was made to provide more time for eligible candidates who have not yet completed their registration and to ensure that no qualified applicant is left out of the admission process due to avoidable delays.

According to the university, prospective candidates are expected to use this extension period to complete every stage of the online registration process. This includes filling in the required personal and academic information, uploading all necessary documents, and carefully reviewing their application before final submission.

The university advised applicants to ensure that the information provided during registration is accurate and consistent with their official records. Candidates should also confirm that they meet the admission requirements for their chosen courses before completing the application process.

LASU further emphasized that all admission activities are carried out through its official admission portal. Applicants have been warned to avoid individuals or websites claiming to offer admission assistance or guaranteed admission in exchange for payment. The institution reiterated that admission is based strictly on merit and the university's approved admission guidelines.

Prospective students are encouraged not to wait until the last minute before completing their registration, as heavy traffic on the portal close to the deadline could lead to technical difficulties. Candidates are therefore advised to finalize their applications early to avoid unnecessary stress.

Applicants should continue to monitor the university's official communication channels for any additional announcements concerning the admission screening exercise, including updates on screening procedures, admission lists, and other important notices.

The extension offers another valuable opportunity for qualified candidates who were unable to register earlier. Eligible applicants are encouraged to make good use of the additional time and ensure that their applications are successfully submitted before the revised deadline.
