📌 LASU Post UTME Form 2026 – Status
Lagos State University has officially released its Post UTME/Post-Admission screening exercise for the 2025/2026 session. Prospective candidates who made LASU their first choice in the UTME and meet the minimum requirements can now register and complete the application process online via the official admission portal at services.lidc.lasu.edu.ng/admissionscreening or the university’s main portal lasu.edu.ng.
🎯 LASU UTME & DE Admission Eligibility
To be eligible for LASU post UTME screening and potential admission, applicants must satisfy the following conditions:
- Select LASU as your first choice institution in the JAMB UTME or Direct Entry application.
- Minimum JAMB UTME score: Candidates must have achieved at least 195 marks in the 2025 UTME to qualify for the LASU screening exercise.
- O’Level requirements: At least five (5) credits in relevant subjects including English Language and Mathematics obtained in not more than two sittings (WAEC, NECO, NABTEB).

📊 LASU Cut Off Mark – What You Must Know
The LASU cut off mark is the minimum UTME score required to be eligible for the post UTME screening and subsequent admission consideration. For the 2025/2026 academic session:
- General cut off mark: 195 and above.
- This benchmark applies across most departments, but some courses such as Medicine, Law, Pharmacy, Dentistry, and other competitive programmes may require higher scores due to demand and limited spaces.
Meeting the cut off mark does not automatically guarantee admission; it merely qualifies you to participate in the screening process. Your final selection will depend on your combined performance (JAMB score + O’Level results + screening exercise results) and the number of vacancies in your chosen course.
📝 How LASU Determines Admission Scores
Lagos State University bases its screening primarily on self-screening results and uploaded O’Level and UTME credentials. While there is no written post UTME test like in some other universities, LASU combines your UTME score with your O’Level performance and other factors to calculate your overall eligibility.
The university may assign points for O’Level grades and UTME performance to derive an aggregate screening score for admission evaluation.
