NYSC 2025 Registration / Application Portal, Requirements & Mobilisation
NYSC 2025 Registration / Application Portal, Requirements & Mobilisation
Are you a fresh graduate gearing up for the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC)? Then listen up! The registration process is a crucial first step, and missing any detail could delay your mobilization. Whether you’re trained locally or abroad, here’s a simple, human-friendly guide to ensure you’re fully prepared and on the right track.
Where to Register
Start by heading to the official NYSC websites:
Make sure you use a working email address and an active Nigerian GSM number. These will be used throughout your NYSC journey, especially for logins and updates. Keep your login details (email and password) secure!
For Locally Trained Graduates
- Your matriculation number must be accurate during registration.
- Only graduates listed in the Senate/Academic Board-approved result lists submitted by their institutions can access the registration portal. So if your name isn’t there, you won’t be able to proceed.
About Your Passport Photograph
Your photo is more than just a pretty face – it must meet these standards:
- Your full face (eyes, nose, ears, mouth, and jawline) should be clearly visible.
- The photo must be well-centered and fill the frame.
- Background must be plain white or off-white, with no shadows.
Avoid filters, sunglasses, or hats – NYSC wants to see the real you!
No Proxy Allowed!
You must register in person. No one else can do it on your behalf. Your fingerprints will be captured during registration and used again for verification at the orientation camp. If your biometrics don’t match at camp, you won’t be registered.
Call-Up Letter: Payment or Not?
You’ve got two options:
- Pay ₦2,786.24 online to get your Call-Up Number via SMS and print your Call-Up Letter from the NYSC portal.
- Skip the payment, and collect both your Call-Up Number and Letter from your school.
Already paid during a previous registration but weren’t mobilized? No need to pay again.
Special Notice for Married Female Corps Members
If you’re married (whether trained locally or abroad), upload:
- Marriage certificate
- Evidence of name change
- Proof of husband’s domicile
This ensures you’re posted close to your spouse, if applicable.
Pregnant or Nursing Mothers
The orientation camp is not suitable for pregnant women or nursing mothers. They won’t be accommodated, so plan accordingly.
