Togo university of Lomé registration guide for new and returning students

The University of Lomé (UL), Togo’s flagship higher education institution, welcomes thousands of first-year and continuing students annually. This year, the university has revamped its enrollment system, embracing digital transformation to streamline the admissions process for all applicants. Whether you’re a fresh high school graduate or a returning student, here’s a step-by-step breakdown of how to complete your registration smoothly.

What you need before starting your registration

Before logging into the university’s online portal, gather the following essentials to ensure a hassle-free process:

  • For first-time applicants (LMD 1): Possession of a BAC 2 diploma or an equivalent qualification recognized by the Togolese Ministry of Higher Education.

  • For returning students: Your UL student ID number (Matricule UL) and proof of having completed the previous academic year or met progression requirements.

  • A valid email address and mobile phone number to create your student account and receive critical updates.

  • Electronic payment options enabled, including Flooz (T-Money/Moov Money) accounts or a functional bank card for settling enrollment and course fees.

Step-by-step online registration guide

The entire registration process is now managed through the University of Lomé’s official portal (accessible at daas.univ-lome.tg or via the dedicated RESUP platform). Follow these five key stages to finalize your enrollment:

Step 1: Account creation and initial registration

Visit the Directorate of Academic Affairs and Scholarships (DAAS) website and set up your student profile. Enter your personal details, provide your high school grades, and select your preferred academic pathway—whether through Faculties, Schools, or Institutes.

Step 2: Upload required documents

Scan and upload the necessary documents in digital format (PDF or JPG). These typically include a valid ID, your BAC 2 certificate, birth certificate, and a recent passport-sized photograph.

Step 3: Pay tuition and registration fees

Settle your fees using approved payment methods, including partner banks such as Ecobank or BTCI/IB Bank, or through integrated mobile money solutions for convenience.

Step 4: Administrative validation and clearance

Once payment is confirmed, the DAAS team reviews your application. Upon approval, a digital clearance certificate (quitus) will be generated and made available in your personal dashboard.

Step 5: Medical check-up and student ID card

Attend the mandatory medical examination at the University Medical Center (CMUL), then collect your biometric student ID card from the designated office.

Documents to keep physically for final verification

While the initial registration is fully digital, students must retain original or certified copies of the following documents for future academic and administrative checks:

  • A certified copy of your birth certificate.
  • A certified copy of your Togolese nationality certificate (for nationals) or your passport/residence permit (for international students).
  • The original or certified copy of your BAC 2 diploma.
  • Academic transcripts from Grades 10, 11, and 12.
  • The printed registration confirmation from the UL portal.
  • Payment receipts (digital or printed) as proof of transaction.

Pro tip: Always adhere to the DAAS deadlines published each academic year. Late submissions often result in penalties or automatic rejection. To avoid last-minute server congestion, complete your registration as soon as the portal opens.
