NYSC Camp Requirements Things Needed For Registration

These items are needed to get you through your registration at NYSC orientation camp: 1) NYSC call-up letter - Of all the NYSC NYSC call-up letter - Of all the NYSC requirements to remember, your call-up letter is the most important one. You are required to have the original copy and the photocopies you made. Without this letter, you shall not be allowed in. This document acts as proof that you are, indeed a prospect and not an impersonator. Do not laminate your call-up letter. If you do, it might make your chances of enrolling very slim. In some cases, prospects have been sent back home and others have been allowed in but only after hours and even days of begging for the opportunity. 2) Final year school identity card - You should also have the original and photocopies of this. The ID card acts as proof that you graduated from the institution indicated on your certificate. 3) Statements of result or certificates - For this, make sure that you have the original copy plus six photocopies of your statement of your result/certificate of the course you studied. 3) Passport photographs - It is recommended that you go with your recent passport photographs. Have about 20 pictures all taken in a white background. The reason for so many pictures is because you will be needed to attach one at different points of registration, e.g. skill acquisition groups, religious groups, sports, bank account opening, etc. 4) Certificates and/or licenses - For doctors, pharmacists, nurses as well as lab scientists, take along your proof of certification. Graduates of Medicine and Pharmacy are expected to have their Certificates of Registration with the Nigerian Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria (NMDCN) and Pharmacists Council of Nigeria (PCN) respectively. 5) Medical certificate of fitness - You must obtain a medical certificate from a government or military hospital to show your current health status.
