LASU Sets October 24 Deadline for NIN Submission — Students Urged to Act Fast
The management of Lagos State University (LASU) has released an urgent directive to all returning full-time undergraduate students, making the submission of the National Identification Number (NIN) a mandatory requirement. The university says this move is crucial to maintaining accurate, verified academic records across its system.
The National Identification Number (NIN) is a unique identity reference for all Nigerian citizens and legal residents. According to LASU, the integration of NIN into student data systems will help the institution validate student identities, prevent record duplication, and enhance transparency in academic administration.
Step-by-Step Guide: How LASU Students Should Submit Their NIN
Students are advised to complete the NIN submission process via the official LASU website by following these steps:
- Visit LASU website.
- Click on the STUDENT tab and select NIN Submission.
- Enter your matriculation number and course registration password, then click Login.
- Input your NIN (or verify and correct it if previously entered).
- Click Submit to finalise the process.
The deadline for submission is Friday, October 24, 2025, giving students a 48-hour window from Wednesday, October 22 to complete their submissions.
Non-Compliance Could Affect Student Records
LASU warned that failure to submit the NIN within the stipulated period may lead to restrictions on student records or limited access to certain online services.
The administration stated that the NIN verification initiative aligns with its broader data validation and record management efforts, which are designed to sync with Nigeria’s national identification database.
Why NIN Verification Matters
According to the university, this exercise supports:
- Authentic student identification and data accuracy.
- Transparent and efficient record management.
- Alignment with national data verification standards.
LASU urged all students to comply immediately to avoid disruptions to their academic activities or administrative processes.
