The institution offered admission to 3 ,500 candidates 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 N 10 ,000 to N 20 , 000 and this remains the cheapest in Nigeria compared to what other universities charge as their acceptance fee .
“The university management , however , wishes to reiterate that there is no increment intuition , neither are there plans to effect any increment ,” Adekoya said .
He urged members of the university community and the general public to disregard any contrary information and be wary of mischief makers trying to incite and create unnecessary tension in the university.
