Overview

Lagos State University (LASU) was established in 1983 for the advancement of learning and academic excellence. Today, it stands as the premier state-owned university in Nigeria, consistently ranked among the top universities globally for its rigorous academic standards and massive student population.

LASU operates across three distinct campuses. The Ojo main campus is a bustling, metropolitan hub of academic activity. The Ikeja campus hosts the elite College of Medicine (LASUCOM) right next to the teaching hospital, while the Epe campus offers a fully residential, serene environment for Engineering and Agriculture students.

💡 Pro Tip: LASU's admission is mathematically strict. Because they use a 50/50 formula between your JAMB score and your O'Level grades, having straight A's in your WAEC/NECO gives you a massive advantage. If you claim to be from Lagos State, do not miss the IIVC screening dates, or your indigene quota will be forfeited.

Admission Requirements

Candidates must strictly choose LASU as their First Choice. You must possess 5 O'Level credits (including English and Mathematics) at not more than two sittings.

Medical And Engineering Rule

Medicine and Dentistry require the 5 O'Level credits to be in ONLY ONE sitting. Candidates combining two sittings for Engineering MUST possess Six (6) credits including Maths, Physics, Chemistry, and English.

Indigeneship Verification

Candidates claiming Lagos State origin MUST prove their claims before the Independent Indigeneship Verification Committee (IIVC) prior to online screening.

Screening Format

LASU uses a 100% aggregate system (No written Post-UTME). UTME score makes up 50% (divided by 8) and O'Level grades make up 50% (A1=10, B2=9, B3=8, C4=7, C5=6, C6=5).

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between LASU Stream 1 and Stream 2?
Stream 1 is the regular degree program with a tuition fee of about ₦57,000. Stream 2 includes a mandatory Comprehensive Entrepreneurship Training program, awarding an extra certificate, but the tuition fee is set at ₦150,000.
Does LASU accept second choice?
No. Lagos State University (LASU) strictly only considers candidates who selected the institution as their first choice during JAMB registration.
How does LASU calculate its aggregate score?
LASU divides your JAMB score by 8 (to get 50%) and converts your 5 core O'Level subjects into points (A1=10, B2=9, B3=8, C4=7, C5=6, C6=5) to get the remaining 50%. The two are added together for your final aggregate.
Where is the LASU Engineering campus located?
The Faculty of Engineering, as well as the School of Agriculture and Environmental Sciences, are located at the LASU Epe Campus.
