Congratulations on your admission to the Lagos State University (LASU)! As a newly admitted student into the vibrant academic community, one of your first formal steps is to address the matter of the LASU acceptance fee. Let’s walk through the process, ensuring you understand each stage clearly.

What is the LASU Acceptance Fee?

The acceptance fee is a mandatory charge that confirms your intention to accept the provisional admission offered to you. For the academic session of 2023/2024, this also includes a medical screening fee, integral for your enrolment.

Immediate Action Required

For those who’ve been offered a place in both Stream 1 & 2, time is of the essence. You must:

1. Log in to the LASU admission portal at LASU Admission List to accept your admission promptly.
2. Failing to accept this offer within the specified timeframe means forfeiting your place, and you will not be proposed for admission on JAMB CAPS.
3. Ensure your O/Level results are updated on the JAMBportal at a certified CBT Centre. Visit O/Level Result Upload for guidance.
4. If the course offered by LASU differs from your initial application, make the necessary course changes on your JAMB CAPS to validate your admission offer.

After these steps, proceed to:

1. Accept the Admission offer via your JAMB CAPS account at Accept Admission on JAMB CAPS.
2. Then, you’re ready to process the payment of your acceptance and medical fees.
