LASU Uploads Outstanding Results, Says No Qualified Student Will Spend Extra Year

Lagos State University (LASU) has resolved the missing results controversy involving final-year English students, confirming that all outstanding results were uploaded on August 23, 2026.

The university gave the assurance after reports emerged that about 100 final-year students were at risk of an additional year following the alleged failure of two lecturers to upload some of their 300-level results.

The development sparked reactions on social media, particularly on X, with concerns that the affected students could be prevented from graduating with their colleagues in the 2025/2026 academic session.

In a statement issued on Sunday, LASU said its management had investigated the matter and confirmed that all outstanding results had been uploaded as of August 23, 2026.

“Following an enquiry by the University Management into the allegation concerning the non-upload of results of some graduating students in the Department of English, the University wishes to clarify that the Department has uploaded all outstanding results as of Sunday, 23 August 2026,” the statement said.

The institution assured students who had fulfilled all graduation requirements that they would graduate with their peers in the just-concluded academic session.

“No student who has met all graduation requirements will be required to spend an extra year on account of the issue raised,” LASU said.

The university, however, clarified that students whose results remain outstanding after the latest action may not have completed the requirements for graduation.

“Any student whose result remains outstanding following this action has yet to fulfil the requirements for graduation and is advised to complete the necessary requirements accordingly.”

LASU reiterated that it would ensure students who have met the requirements for graduation are not unnecessarily delayed in completing their programmes.
