PCM News: Now that you have found your Name, WHAT NEXT?


Congratulations if you found your records on the NYSC website. If you did not, find out if your school has submitted their list to NYSC. If not be patient, but otherwise, run to the students affairs division of your school and rectify the issue and ensure your record is uploaded on or before 19th of April.

Once your record is found, it means you have been shortlisted for the online registration scheduled to begin on the 20th of this month and end on the 6th of May.

There alot of rumours going around about the whole requirement for online registration and this article will try to put some of these rumours to rest.
Firstly, Go to a government approved hospital and get a medical clearance certificate as this is part of the new requirements in camp.

Secondly, online registration can be done at any cyber cafe, but it cannot be done with a phone,-unless your phone has a biometric scanner-because your thumbprint is required.

Even though the NYSC website says you would need to upload all your documents( Waec, Neco, statement of results)  investigation reveals that in most cases you are not required to upload all these documents during online registration. What is required are the dates you began and finished your primary, secondary and Tertiary schooling. The originals of these documents however, will be screened in camp so bring them to camp.

The assumption that your record showed, therefore you are in stream 1,is false. The streams are decided based on sequence Of registration. If you register early, your chances of being part of stream 1 is increased.

There are loads of information flying around trying to make this thing look so complicated, but no be we first go camp, and no be we go last!
If further clarification is needed for any of these issues, feel free to comment and we'll try to help. Or send us a message at corperslodge808@gmail.com


So, unless you're short, buy your white shirts, shorts and shoes and prepare for camp!

Prospective Corp members are usually baraged with a lot of information,most of them conflicting.
