LASU Announces Hostel Check-In Date for 2025: Students to Resume on October 11
The long wait is finally over for students of Lagos State University (LASU) eager to return to campus life. The university management has officially announced that hostel check-in for students with allocated bed spaces will begin on Saturday, October 11, 2025, starting from 9:00 a.m.
From that moment, the campus will once again come alive — with students rolling in their bags, friends reuniting after months apart, and the familiar sound of laughter echoing through the hostels.
Important Check-In Requirements
Before you grab your luggage and rush to the hostel, LASU has made it clear that no student will be allowed entry without presenting the required documents. Each student must come along with:
- Receipt of Hostel Payment – Proof that you have completed your accommodation payment.
- Bed Space Allocation Slip – Confirms your assigned space in the hostel.
- One Passport Photograph – Mandatory for documentation and identification.
Failure to present any of these documents may result in being turned back at the gate.
What to Expect on Arrival
The check-in process is expected to begin calmly in the morning and pick up momentum as the day progresses. Students should prepare for document verification queues, crowded hostel areas, and staff checking allocations.
For first-year students or those returning after a break, it’s completely normal to feel a bit lost. Feel free to ask for directions or assistance from staff and senior students — everyone’s been there once.
Those bringing friends or family to assist with luggage are advised to arrive early, as the hostel areas tend to get congested by the afternoon, and parking space becomes scarce.
Useful Tips for a Smooth Check-In
- Arrive Early: The earlier you arrive, the shorter the wait.
- Keep Your Documents Safe: Consider laminating or sealing them in a transparent folder.
- Inspect Your Room: Check locks, lights, sockets, and windows before unpacking.
- Bring Cleaning Supplies: Some rooms may need light cleaning before settling in.
- Keep Small Change Handy: You might need it for water, snacks, or quick repairs.
Stay Updated
For the latest updates or last-minute announcements, students are encouraged to visit th LASU official website. Important notices regarding hostel policies and student affairs are often posted there.
Editor’s Note
Returning to campus always brings a mix of excitement and chaos — but that’s the charm of university life. Once the dust settles, it’s back to lectures, group projects, and endless hostel gist.
So, pack your bags, double-check your documents, and get ready for another vibrant semester at LASU.
After all, there’s nothing quite like that first weekend back on campus — crowded, noisy, and full of energy.
