LASU has opened registration for its 2025/2026 Indigeneship Verification Exercise. Only Lagos State indigenes who picked LASU as first choice and scored 195 or above in UTME can apply. Full details and key dates are shared below, so read carefully.

Lagos State University (LASU) has announced the start of its Indigeneship Verification Exercise for the 2025/2026 academic session. If you’re from Lagos, chose LASU as your first choice in UTME, and scored 195 or above, you’re eligible to register.
The registration opens Monday, 26 May 2025, and closes Thursday, 19 June 2025. Interviews will begin the same day the portal goes live.
This process helps confirm you’re truly from Lagos State, but let’s be clear — passing this verification does not guarantee admission.
