How to Check Your Name on NYSC Graduation List

If you are a Nigerian graduate who wants to participate in the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) program, you need to make sure that your name is on the NYSC graduation list.

The NYSC graduation list is a document that contains the names of all the graduates who are eligible for the NYSC program. The list is prepared by the institutions where the graduates studied and submitted to the NYSC for verification and mobilization.

Why You Should Check Your Name on the NYSC Graduation List

Checking your name on the NYSC graduation list is important for several reasons:

• It confirms that your institution has recognized and approved your graduation and has forwarded your details to the NYSC.
• It ensures that you are not disqualified or exempted from the NYSC program due to age, course of study, or any other reason.
• It enables you to register for the NYSC online and choose your preferred state of deployment.
• It prevents any delay or problem in getting your call-up letter and reporting to the orientation camp.
