LASU Post UTME Screening Form 2026 is out — Cut Off Mark 195, and Full Guide
LASU Post UTME Screening Form 2026/2027 Is Out
Lagos State University — LASU — located in Ojo, Lagos State, has officially announced the release of its 2026/2027 Post UTME and Direct Entry undergraduate admission screening form. LASU is one of the largest state universities in Nigeria by student population and its admission is consistently competitive, particularly for courses like Law, Medicine, Pharmacy, Computer Science, and Engineering. The screening portal for the 2026/2027 academic session is now active and eligible candidates can register through here.
LASU is a state university owned by the Lagos State Government — not a federal institution, not a private one. As a state university, it is under LASUSTECH group alongside Lagos State University of Science and Technology. The university operates the distinctive LASU Continuing Education Centre — LASUED operates separately as a sister institution. Candidates who want LASU specifically must register through the LASU screening portal and not through LASUED or any affiliated institution's portal.
Does LASU Do Post UTME or Screening?
LASU conducts a Post UTME Screening exercise — not a physical CBT exam in the exam hall. The LASU screening process is online. Candidates register through the official LASU admission screening portal, upload their credentials, and await their screening outcome. There is no separate written examination to travel to the Ojo campus for. The entire screening is a credential and score-based online process that assesses candidates on the basis of their JAMB scores and O'Level results to apply check here.
This is a significant practical advantage — candidates from across Lagos State and beyond can complete the process without any campus visit for the screening itself. However a separate LASU Medical Screening is required for candidates offered admission into health science programmes — this medical screening is a physical exercise conducted on campus.
What Is the Cut Off Mark for LASU Post UTME Screening 2026?
The minimum JAMB cut off mark for LASU for the 2026/2027 session is 180 for most programmes. This is one of the higher state university cut offs in Nigeria and reflects LASU's competitive positioning.
Departmental cut offs at LASU vary significantly. Key thresholds based on confirmed LASU patterns:
- Medicine and Surgery: 250 and above to be genuinely competitive
- Law: 220 and above
- Pharmacy: 220 and above
- Computer Science: 200 and above
- Engineering programmes: 190 to 200 and above
- Mass Communication: 185 and above
- All other programmes: minimum 180
The complete departmental cut off table for LASU 2026/2027 is published on the official LASU portal at lasued.edu.ng/admissions and the main LASU website at lasu.edu.ng.
How Much Is the LASU Screening Form for Non-Indigene?
The LASU Post UTME screening form costs N5,000 for Lagos State indigenes and non-indigenes pay a higher fee. Based on LASU's confirmed fee structure, non-indigene candidates pay N10,000 for the screening form. This indigene/non-indigene distinction on form fees is LASU's consistent policy across admission cycles. Confirm the exact current amounts from the official LASU screening portal at lasu.edu.ng during the active registration window since fees are reviewed between sessions.
LASU Admission Screening Portal — How to Login
The LASU admission screening portal is accessed through the official LASU website . Navigate to the admissions section and click on the Post UTME screening portal link. Your JAMB registration number serves as your primary identifier for accessing the portal. After payment of the screening fee, you receive login credentials that allow you to complete your application form, upload your O'Level results and passport photograph, and submit.
Why Is the LASU Admission Screening Portal Closed?
Candidates sometimes encounter a "portal closed" message when trying to access the LASU screening portal. This happens for several reasons:
The most common reason is that you are accessing the portal outside the active registration window. LASU opens and closes the portal on specific dates and when the deadline passes, the portal stops accepting new applications. If the registration window has not yet opened or has already closed, the portal will show as unavailable.
The second reason is that the portal undergoes maintenance or update periods — particularly in the days immediately before or after the form release date. Trying again after 24 hours usually resolves this.
The third reason is browser incompatibility. LASU's screening portal works best on Chrome or Firefox browsers. Using Opera Mini, old browser versions, or mobile browsers that do not properly render JavaScript can cause the portal to appear non-functional even when it is active.
What Is the Next Step After Screening on LASU Portal?
After completing your LASU Post UTME screening registration, the next steps are:
Your screening result is published on the portal. Log in to check your screening score. After screening results are processed, LASU releases its admission list in batches. When your name appears on the LASU admission list, you log in to the portal and proceed to accept your admission offer. After accepting, you pay the LASU acceptance fee to confirm your place. After paying the acceptance fee, you proceed to the LASU medical screening if you are admitted into a health science programme. After medical clearance, you pay your school fees and complete full registration to activate your student status.
LASU Medical Screening Portal
The LASU medical screening portal is a separate section from the main admission screening portal. It is specifically for candidates who have received admission offers into health science programmes — Medicine, Pharmacy, Nursing, and related courses. The medical screening is a physical exercise conducted on the Ojo campus. Your medical screening date is communicated through the portal after your admission offer is confirmed and accepted.
Has LASU Post UTME Form Closed?
Whether the LASU Post UTME form is still open or has closed depends on where the current 2026/2027 admission cycle stands. The registration window for LASU typically runs for several weeks from the opening date. LASU sets firm closing dates and does not reopen the portal after the deadline. Monitor the official LASU website at lasu.edu.ng for the confirmed current status of the 2026/2027 screening form.
What Is the Date for LASU Post UTME Screening?
The LASU Post UTME screening for 2026/2027 does not have a specific single exam date because it is an online credential-based process — not a physical CBT with assigned dates. The screening runs throughout the registration window. After you submit your application and credentials, LASU processes them and publishes your result on the portal. The dates that matter are the registration opening date and the closing deadline — both are published on the official LASU website.
College of Education in Lagos Connected to LASU
Candidates sometimes search for LASU alongside Lagos Island Diploma Centre — LIDC — and colleges of education in Lagos. LIDC is an affiliate of LASU that runs diploma programmes. Lagos State University of Education — LASUED — is a separate institution from LASU. Both LASU and LASUED are Lagos State Government-owned institutions but they are distinct and their admission processes are completely separate. If you want a LASU degree, apply through the LASU portal. If you want a LASUED education degree, that is a different institution.
