Lomé university registration guide: streamlined steps for new and returning students
Mastering your enrollment at the University of Lomé: a step-by-step guide
The University of Lomé (UL) stands as Togo’s premier higher education institution, welcoming thousands of fresh high school graduates and continuing students annually. For the current academic year, the university has revamped its enrollment processes, embracing digital solutions to streamline procedures and enhance user experience. Whether you’re a first-time applicant or returning student, here’s how to complete your registration smoothly.
Essential prerequisites for a hassle-free registration
Before diving into the online process, ensure you meet these key requirements:
- First-time applicants (LMD 1): You must hold a valid high school diploma (BAC 2) or an equivalent credential recognized by educational authorities.
- Returning students: You’ll need your UL student ID number (Matricule UL) and proof of having completed the previous academic year or meeting progression criteria.
- Valid contact details: An active email address and phone number are mandatory for account setup and receiving important notifications.
- Electronic payment options: Prepare a Flooz account (T-Money/Moov Money), a debit/credit card, or use an authorized mobile money service to cover registration and tuition fees.
Navigating the online registration process
The entire enrollment journey now takes place through the University’s official digital portals. Access the DAAS portal (daas.univ-lome.tg) or the dedicated RESUP platform to begin your application.
Step 1: Profile creation and initial application
Visit the Directorate of Academic Affairs and Scholarships (DAAS) website. Register by entering your personal details, high school grades, and selecting your preferred academic pathway (Faculties, Schools, or Institutes).
Step 2: Uploading required documents
Digitally submit the following scanned documents in PDF or JPG format: national ID, BAC 2 certificate, birth certificate, and a recent passport-sized photograph.
Step 3: Settling tuition fees
Pay your registration and tuition fees through approved channels, including partner banks (Ecobank, BTCI/IB Bank) or integrated mobile payment systems.
Step 4: Final administrative clearance
After payment confirmation, the DAAS team reviews your submission. Upon approval, download your registration quitus from your personal dashboard.
Step 5: Medical clearance and student ID
Visit the University Medical Center (CMUL) for the mandatory health check. Once cleared, collect your biometric student ID from the designated counter.
Physical documents to keep on hand
While the pre-registration is fully digital, you must retain the original copies of these documents for academic verifications:
- A certified copy of your birth certificate.
- A certified copy of your Togolese nationality certificate (for nationals) or passport/residence permit (for international students).
- The original or certified copy of your BAC 2 diploma.
- Academic transcripts from Grade 10, 11, and 12 (Seconde, Première, Terminale).
- The printed registration confirmation from the UL portal.
- Bank or mobile payment receipts.
Pro tip: Strictly adhere to the DAAS-issued deadlines. Late submissions often incur penalties or automatic rejections. To avoid last-minute server congestion, initiate your registration as soon as the window opens.
