Professor Folasade T. Ogunsola, OON, FAS, the Vice-Chancellor of the University of Lagos (UNILAG), has authorized a final opportunity for course registration. This is a one-time chance for students who were unable to meet earlier deadlines or need to make final adjustments to their course selections before the upcoming semester exams.
The portal will be active during the following strictly enforced window:
-
Opening: Wednesday, February 18, 2026, at 12:00 noon
-
Closing: Sunday, February 22, 2026, at 12:00 noon
Registration & Correction Checklist
To ensure a seamless process, students should follow these immediate steps upon the portal’s opening:
-
Payment Verification: Confirm that at least 50% of obligatory fees(and all compulsory dues like Utility, Faculty, and Departmental fees) have been paid. The registration portal is often locked if payment records are not updated.
-
Add/Delete Operations: If you are correcting your course load, ensure you stay within the minimum and maximum credit unit limits allowed for your level.
-
GST Courses: Students must ensure they have correctly registered for General Studies (GST) courses on the dedicated if applicable to their year.
-
Docket Generation: Once registration is submitted, print the Course Registration Form and present it to your Course Adviser for signing. This is a prerequisite for generating your final examination docket.
Critical Academic Implications
This re-opening is described by the University Management as the final opportunity for the first semester. Failure to register within this period carries significant academic risks:
-
Examination Ineligibility: Under UNILAG’s “No Registration, No Examination” policy, students without a validly generated course form will not be issued an examination docket.
-
Lost Credits: Courses attended but not registered for cannot be credited with grades; such students are technically regarded as “ABSENT” for the semester.
-
Probation Risks: Unregistered semesters can impact a student’s Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) and status, potentially leading to probation or withdrawal if the GPA remains below 1.00 for consecutive semesters.
Deadline is firm: extensions will not be considered.
