📌 Important Notes
1. No NERD Upload, No Mobilization
NYSC has made it clear that institutions must upload their Senate-approved lists to the Nigeria Education Repository and Databank (NERD) . Failure to do so will result in No Mobilization for graduates of that institution.
2. NYSC Does Not Recognize Off-CAPS Admissions
The NYSC has reiterated that only graduates admitted through the JAMB CAPS platform will be mobilized for service. Candidates who accepted "paper admissions" or informal school listings do so at their own risk.
3. Ensure NIN Matches School Records
Confirm that your name, date of birth, and other details on your NIN match your school records exactly. Discrepancies can delay or prevent your mobilization.
