University of Lomé admission guide: how to register successfully
As West Africa’s premier higher education institution, the University of Lomé (UL) welcomes thousands of fresh graduates and continuing students annually. To streamline the enrollment experience, the university has transitioned to a fully digital admission system, eliminating paperwork hassles while ensuring transparency. Whether you’re a first-time applicant or a returning student, here’s everything you need to know to complete your registration smoothly.
Essential prerequisites for enrollment
Before starting the online process, gather these mandatory documents and credentials:
- New high school graduates (LMD 1 track): You must possess a valid BAC 2 diploma or an equivalent qualification recognized by the Togolese Ministry of Education.
- Returning students: Have your UL matriculation number ready and ensure you’ve completed all prerequisites for your current academic level.
- Valid contact details: A functional email address and mobile number are required for account creation and receiving official notifications.
- Digital payment options: Prepare an active mobile money account (Flooz, T-Money, or Moov Money) or a debit/credit card to cover application and tuition fees.
Step-by-step online registration process
All administrative procedures are now handled through the university’s official digital portal, accessible at daas.univ-lome.tg or via the dedicated RESUP platform. Follow these five key stages to finalize your enrollment:
1. Account creation and pre-registration
Visit the Directorate of Academic Affairs and Scholarships (DAAS) website to set up your student profile. Provide personal details, your high school grades, and select your preferred faculty, school, or institute.
2. Document upload
Digitalize and submit the required supporting documents in PDF or JPG format. This includes a valid ID, your BAC 2 certificate, birth certificate, and a recent passport-sized photo.
3. Tuition payment
Process your payment through approved channels, such as partner banks (Ecobank, BTCI/IB Bank) or integrated mobile payment solutions.
4. Administrative validation
After payment confirmation, the DAAS team verifies your submission. Once approved, you’ll receive a downloadable enrollment quitus from your personal dashboard.
5. Medical checkup and student ID card
Schedule a mandatory medical examination at the UL Medical Center. Upon completion, collect your biometric student ID card from the designated office.
Original documents to retain for final verification
While the pre-registration is fully digital, you must present the original physical copies of these documents during academic checks or exams:
- A certified copy of your Birth Certificate.
- A certified copy of your Togolese Nationality Certificate (for citizens) or valid passport/residence permit (for international students).
- The original or certified copy of your BAC 2 diploma.
- Academic transcripts from Seconde, Première, and Terminale classes.
- The printed enrollment confirmation from the UL portal.
- Bank or mobile payment receipts as proof of payment.
Pro tip: Strictly adhere to the DAAS-issued deadlines. Late submissions often face penalties or automatic rejection. To avoid server congestion near deadlines, initiate your registration as soon as the portal opens.
