University of lome digital registration guide for new and returning students

The University of Lomé (UL), Togo’s largest higher education institution, welcomes thousands of fresh baccalaureate holders and continuing students annually. This academic year, the university has streamlined its registration process by fully digitizing administrative procedures to enhance user experience. What steps should prospective and returning students follow to complete their enrollment smoothly? Here’s a clear breakdown of the process.

Essential requirements for smooth enrollment

Before starting your online registration, ensure you have the following ready:

  • New baccalaureate holders (LMD 1): You must have successfully obtained the BAC 2 or an equivalent recognized qualification.
  • Returning students: You need your UL student ID number (Matricule UL) and proof of having completed the previous academic level or meeting progression criteria.
  • Valid contact details: A working email address and phone number are required to create your account and receive updates.
  • Digital payment options: Be prepared to pay registration and tuition fees using supported mobile money services (Flooz, T-Money, Moov Money) or an activated bank card.

Step-by-step online registration process

All administrative procedures are now handled through the University of Lomé’s official digital portal, accessible at daas.univ-lome.tg or via the dedicated RESUP platform.

1. Account creation and online pre-registration

Visit the website of the Directorate of Academic Affairs and Scholarships (DAAS). Create your student profile by entering personal details, your BAC scores, and selecting your preferred course of study (Faculty, School, or Institute).

2. Uploading required documents

Digitize and upload the following documents in PDF or JPG format: valid ID, BAC 2 certificate, birth certificate, and a recent passport-sized photograph.

3. Payment of tuition fees

Complete the payment of registration and tuition fees through authorized channels, including partner banks like Ecobank, BTCI/IB Bank, or integrated mobile payment solutions.

4. Administrative validation and receipt

After payment confirmation, the DAAS reviews your application. Once approved, you can download your registration receipt from your personal dashboard.

5. Medical check-up and student ID card

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

Documents to keep on hand for final submission

While the pre-registration is entirely digital, students must retain original physical copies of certain documents for academic verification or examination purposes:

  • 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 certificate.
  • Academic transcripts from grades 10, 11, and 12.
  • The printed enrollment form from the UL portal.
  • Bank or electronic payment receipts.

Pro tip: Strictly adhere to the deadlines published by the DAAS. Late registrations often result in penalties or automatic rejection. To avoid server congestion during peak periods, initiate your registration as soon as the session opens.
