Learn how to ensure your college admission in Nigeria is valid for the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) with JAMB Regularization. Find out why it’s important, how to check if you need it, and follow a simple step-by-step process on the official JAMB website.
What is JAMB Regularization?
JAMB Regularization, also known as ‘JAMB Late Application,’ is an official process by the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) to make sure that a student’s admission into a Nigerian higher institution is valid and approved.
Why is JAMB Regularization Needed?
Sometimes, a student gets into a college in Nigeria through different ways like part-time, pre-Science, diploma, direct entry, or other special paths.
Or, the college might forget to tell JAMB about the student’s admission after they took the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).
The point of Regularization is to make sure that the student’s admission follows the rules of Nigeria’s constitution and is known and approved by JAMB.
If you don’t do Regularization when needed, your application for the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) program might get rejected.
Why is JAMB Regularization Important?
Many students and graduates from different colleges don’t get to join the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) program because they didn’t do the JAMB Regularization.
