LASU Intake In Trouble Due To Low Turnout The recent screening of new intakes for the Lagos State University (LASU) Ojo was hit by a rather low number of students. Even though Tuesdays turnout was a lot higher than Mondays, it was still low in comparison with what was experienced in previous years. The Dean of Student Affairs, LASU, Prof. Kabir Akinyemi, however, said that there was hope that the turnout would continue to improve in subsequent days. Asked if the high school fees could be discouraging some students, Akinyemi said short-listed students were already aware of the fees. “There would be an impressive and better turnout subsequently, since the exercise is still in progress,” he said. Akinyemi urged prospective students to show up for the exercise and shun deliberate absenteeism. “In the event of some students missing the exercise, the university management may have to decide on an avenue to re- screen those with genuine reasons before the matriculation on March 28.” The professor said that candidates who did not meet the specified requirements for admission would be screened out during the exercise. “It is not possible for LASU to admit any student who is unqualified because they need students. “Any student who does not meet up with the requirement would either have to change the course to that which is suitable, or would be denied the admission,” the dean said. He advised the students to be of good conduct during the exercise and beyond. Sources: Vanguard
