LASU hotel allocation does not just come with the needed personal comfort but also with nearness to campus and a chance to get the real university experience.

The 2025/2026 hostel allocation portal for Lagos State University will open for students to apply from the 5th of September 2025 and will run until the 6th of October 2025, which also happens to be the resumption date of students.

Due to the limited slots available for students, the university introduced a first come, first served system, where the first batch of students who apply will be attended to and allocated their space before considering others.
