LASU Gives Graduates Final Deadline To Collect Certificates (See Date)
The
Lagos State University, LASU, said on Friday that 24,734 certificates
of graduates who left the institution over the last 10 years were lying
uncollected at its registry.
Early in the year, Prof. Olanrewaju Fagbohun, LASU Vice-Chancellor,
assured that the backlog of certificates in the institution will be
resolved within four months.
Adekoya Martins, the Acting Head, Centre for Information, Press and
Public Relations, LASU, told newsmen that the certificates were for
students who graduated with diplomas and degrees.
Martins said that the university, following the backlog of
uncollected certificates, had decided that affected graduates who fail
to collect theirs before October 21 would have to pay N15,000 before
doing so.
Martins said: “Before you know it, some the graduates of the
university will be clamouring that LASU is withholding their
certificates.
“Now that the certificates have been signed and released for collection, only a few are coming for it.
“Collection of certificates commenced on September 26 and it will end on October 21.
“Payment for late collection after the stipulated period of four weeks, after Friday October 21, is N15,000 only.”
The university, in its official bulletin, had said the certificates
were available for collection at the Certificate Unit of the Exams and
Records in its Registry.
It urged graduates to visit the university website – www.lasu.edu.ng –
for further information on the procedure for collection of certificates
and confirmation of the list of issued certificates
