LASUED Announces Supplementary Online Admission Screening for 2026/2027, Lists Requirements and Deadline
The Lagos State University of Education (LASUED) has announced a supplementary online admission screening exercise for the 2026/2027 academic session, offering prospective students another opportunity to seek admission into selected programmes in its College of Allied Health Sciences Education.
The supplementary admission window covers three undergraduate programmes: B.CHS. Community Health Science, B.Sc. Public Health, and B.Sc. Water Sanitation and Hygiene.
According to the university’s announcement, candidates who sat for the 2026 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) and scored at least 185 may apply, provided they meet the relevant admission requirements. The opportunity is open to eligible candidates who could not secure admission through their initial choices, as well as candidates who did not originally select LASUED but are willing to change their institution through the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB).
The university has fixed Friday, October 30, 2026, as the closing date for the supplementary screening exercise. Interested applicants are therefore advised to review the requirements for their preferred programme, complete any necessary change of institution, and submit their applications before the deadline.
LASUED Supplementary Screening: Programmes Available
The supplementary screening exercise is specifically for three programmes in the university’s College of Allied Health Sciences Education. Applicants should confirm that their academic qualifications and subject combinations meet the requirements of the programme they intend to study.
1. B.CHS. Community Health Science
Community Health Science is a five-year degree programme for candidates entering through UTME. It is intended for students interested in health promotion, disease prevention, community-based healthcare, and related public health services.
For UTME admission, candidates must have scored at least 185 in the 2026 UTME. The required subject combination includes English Language, Mathematics, Biology or Health Science, Chemistry, and Physics.
Applicants must also possess five credit passes in SSCE, WAEC, NECO, NABTEB, or an accepted equivalent examination. These credits must include English Language, Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry, and Physics, obtained in not more than two sittings.
Candidates applying through Direct Entry may be considered with relevant qualifications such as OND, HND, NCE at Merit level, or A-Level qualifications in relevant health or science fields, in addition to the required O’Level credits.
2. B.Sc. Public Health
Public Health is a four-year degree programme for UTME candidates. The field focuses on protecting and improving the health of populations through health education, prevention strategies, research, and the study of factors affecting community wellbeing.
The minimum UTME score specified by LASUED is 185 for the 2026 examination. Applicants are expected to have the required subject combination of English Language, Mathematics, Biology or Health Science, Chemistry, and Physics.
The O’Level requirement is five credits, including English Language, Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry, and Physics, obtained in no more than two sittings.
Candidates with relevant OND, HND, NCE at Merit level, or A-Level qualifications may also explore the Direct Entry route, subject to the university’s stated requirements and assessment of their qualifications.
Applicants should pay close attention to the specified subjects. Meeting the minimum UTME score alone does not necessarily establish eligibility if the required examination subjects or O’Level credits are missing.
3. B.Sc. Water Sanitation and Hygiene
The university has also included B.Sc. Water Sanitation and Hygiene in the supplementary admission exercise. The programme is a four-year degree course for UTME candidates and relates to safe water, sanitation systems, hygiene promotion, and environmental conditions that affect public health.
Candidates must have scored at least 185 in the 2026 UTME. The stated subject combination includes English Language, Mathematics, Biology or Health Science, Chemistry, and Physics or Geography, as specified in the university’s notice.
Applicants must also possess five O’Level credit passes, including English Language, Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry, and Physics, at not more than two sittings.
Direct Entry applicants with relevant OND, HND, NCE at Merit level, or A-Level qualifications may be considered alongside the required O’Level subjects.
Because the subject combination and O’Level requirements are important to admission eligibility, applicants should read the official programme-specific instructions carefully before submitting an application.
Who Can Apply for the Supplementary Screening?
The supplementary screening is intended for prospective students who meet the university’s requirements but have not secured admission through their initial choices.
Eligible applicants include candidates who sat for the 2026 UTME and obtained a score of 185 or above but could not secure admission through their first-choice institution. Candidates who did not initially select LASUED may also apply, provided they are willing to change their institution through JAMB.
Applicants in this second category should not assume that registering on the university’s website automatically changes their institution of choice. They are instructed to visit the JAMB portal and change their institution to Lagos State University of Education, selecting one of the three advertised programmes.
Candidates should ensure that their JAMB records are accurate and that their preferred programme matches the course they intend to study at LASUED.
The university also provides a Direct Entry route for candidates with specified qualifications in relevant health or science fields. Direct Entry applicants should carefully check the required credentials and follow the separate document-submission instructions provided in the notice.
O’Level Requirements and Required Subjects
O’Level results are a central part of the screening process. Candidates should verify that they possess the required credits before beginning their applications.
For the three advertised programmes, the university specifies five credits at not more than two sittings. The compulsory subjects include English Language, Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry, and Physics.
Applicants should ensure that their examination results accurately reflect their names and other personal information. Where results are required to be uploaded online, candidates should follow the instructions on the university’s official website and make sure that all required credentials are submitted correctly.
Candidates who are uncertain whether their subjects or qualifications meet the requirements should consult the official admission notice before proceeding. This is particularly important for applicants whose examination subjects differ from the combinations specified for their intended programmes.
Submitting an application without the required subjects may not lead to eligibility for admission, even if the applicant meets the minimum UTME score.
How to Apply for the LASUED Supplementary Screening
LASUED has directed prospective applicants to use the university’s official website for registration. All credentials are to be uploaded online.
Candidates should follow these steps:
Check your eligibility. Confirm that you sat for the 2026 UTME and obtained the required score, or that you meet the relevant Direct Entry conditions.
Select your preferred programme. Choose from B.CHS. Community Health Science, B.Sc. Public Health, and B.Sc. Water Sanitation and Hygiene.
Complete a change of institution where necessary. If LASUED was not your initial choice, visit the JAMB portal and change your institution to LASUED, selecting the relevant programme.
Visit the university’s official website. Go to www.lasued.edu.ng and locate the supplementary online admission screening announcement and application instructions.
Complete the online registration. Provide the information requested and upload all required credentials according to the university’s instructions.
Review your application. Before submitting, check your personal information, programme selection, examination details, and uploaded documents for accuracy.
Keep your application records. Retain relevant confirmation details and payment receipts for future reference.
Applicants should use only the payment method and account details officially specified by the university. LASUED has warned that anyone who pays an individual, another account, or through an unauthorised method does so at their own risk.
Direct Entry Applicants: Additional Instructions
The university’s notice includes provisions for candidates seeking admission through Direct Entry. Eligible qualifications may include OND, HND, NCE at Merit level, or A-Level credentials in relevant health or science fields, together with the specified O’Level requirements.
Direct Entry candidates are required to submit a copy of their online screening report, alongside a copy of their notification of NCE, ND, or Diploma result, to the university’s Admission Office for further processing.
Applicants in this category should not overlook this instruction. Completing the online application may not be the only step required for the processing of their Direct Entry applications.
They should also ensure that the documents submitted correspond with the qualifications stated in their application and follow any additional guidance issued by the university.
Closing Date for the 2026/2027 Supplementary Admission
LASUED has set Friday, October 30, 2026, as the deadline for the supplementary online admission screening exercise.
Candidates who intend to apply should begin the process early enough to address possible difficulties with JAMB records, course selection, examination results, document uploads, or payment.
Applicants should not wait until the final day to begin registration. Technical problems or incomplete documents discovered close to the deadline could delay an application, and the university has not stated in the announcement that another extension will be granted.
Prospective students should also check the official university website for any subsequent updates to the application process.
Important Advice for Prospective Students
Candidates should understand that participation in the supplementary screening exercise does not guarantee admission. Applicants must satisfy the relevant academic requirements and comply with the university’s admission procedures.
The minimum UTME score of 185 is one condition for the advertised UTME route, not a substitute for the required subject combination and O’Level credits.
Candidates should also be cautious about unofficial claims of guaranteed admission or requests for payments through personal accounts. The university’s stated warning makes it important to verify payment instructions and registration details directly through its official channels.
For applicants who meet the requirements, the supplementary exercise offers an additional opportunity to seek admission into one of the three programmes. Careful preparation and timely completion of the required steps can help reduce avoidable application errors.
Conclusion
The Lagos State University of Education has opened a supplementary online admission screening opportunity for the 2026/2027 academic session in Community Health Science, Public Health, and Water Sanitation and Hygiene.
Eligible UTME applicants must have scored at least 185 in the 2026 UTME and possess the required O’Level credits. Candidates who did not originally choose LASUED are instructed to change their institution through JAMB before proceeding with the application. Direct Entry candidates must also follow the university’s additional document-submission requirements.
The application deadline is Friday, October 30, 2026. Interested candidates should consult the official LASUED website, verify the requirements for their preferred programme, upload their credentials, and complete the screening process before the closing date.
