Lagos State University
The Lagos State University (LASU), Ojo, has clarified that though it has increased acceptance fee for its new intakes, it has no plan to increase tuition.In an official bulletin signed by Coordinator of its Centre for Information Press and Public Relations Unit, Mr. Adekoya Martins, and obtained by the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Lagos yesterday, LASU said it increased acceptance fee from N10, 000 to N20, 000, payable once by the 3,500 candidates recently offered provisional admission by the institution for the 2017/2018 academic session.
“Attention of LASU Management has again been drawn to the erroneous insinuations making the rounds, especially on the social media, regarding a plan to increase or purported increase in the school fee being paid by its students presently.
“What the university has done is to increase the acceptance fee from N10, 000 to N20, 000 and this remains the cheapest in Nigeria, compared to what other universities charge as their acceptance fee.
We only increased acceptance fee, not tuition, says LASU
