Lagos State University (LASU) has officially announced the commencement of the 2026/2027 admission exercise for Independent Indigenes through the Indigeneship Verification Exercise (IIVE).
๐ช๐ต๐ฎ๐ ๐ถ๐ ๐๐๐ฉ๐?
The Independent Indigeneship Verification Exercise (IIVE) is a mandatory screening process conducted by LASU to confirm candidates who claim Lagos State indigene status. This is important because LASU gives special admission consideration to verified indigenes.

Only candidates who successfully pass the IIVE screening will be considered as Lagos State indigenes for admission.
Failure to participate means you will be treated as a non-indigene, which may affect admission chances for competitive courses.

If you or your child is claiming Lagos indigene status, or targeting competitive courses like Medicine, Nursing, Law, Engineering, then proper guidance is critical.
Many candidates lose admission due to wrong documentation, poor understanding of LASU admission structure, and failure at verification stage.
If you want, I can help you, break down LASU admission strategy for 2026/2027, explain cut-off marks and aggregate calculation, admission quota, and guide you on how to pass IIVE successfully.
Just tell me.
