Important update for University of Lagos (UNILAG) students

This short guide helps students of the University of Lagos (UNILAG) understand how course fees and registration work on the school portal. It explains how fees are set, which charges are compulsory, the minimum payment needed, and what to do if the portal gives an error.

How the course registration portal is set up

The course registration portal is set up in two main parts:

1. Programme type
   • Science
   • Non-science
2. Category of student
   • Fresher
   • Returning student
   • Graduating student

These two details work together to decide each student’s fee structure on the portal.

Compulsory fees for all students

To complete course registration, some fees must be paid in full. These are marked as compulsory on the portal. They include:

• Utility
• Departmental dues
• Faculty dues
• Convocation fees (for graduating students only)

Students must make sure these charges are cleared, as the portal will not show full completion of registration until these items are paid.

Minimum payment to complete registration

Every student must pay at least 50% of the Obligatory Fee to complete registration on the portal.

Once this 50% part payment is made, and the compulsory items are fully settled, the system will allow course registration to move forward.

Field trip fees

Some departments include Field Trip Fees.

Where this applies, the Field Trip Fees are clearly indicated on the portal for payment as part of the student’s total charges.

Steps to fix common portal issues

If a student has trouble generating fees or registering courses on the portal, the following simple steps can help:

1. Log in to the student portal.
2. Use the option to refresh payment status.
3. Generate fees again.
4. View the pay advice.
5. Proceed to pay through the listed payment channel.

If the steps above are followed, most display issues or missing fee items on the portal are cleared.
