Every year, many graduates of various institutions miss out of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) program because they couldn’t be ‘regularized‘ by the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB). Therefore, in order to avert this unfortunate scenario, this article was written to show both Students and Graduates, how to do JAMB regularization for NYSC mobilization.
In this article, you will also learn the meaning of JAMB regularization and what it is all about. If this is your first time of hearing about ‘JAMB Regularization’, then after going through this piece, you would learn enough to teach others.
What is JAMB Regularization?
JAMB Regularization also known as ‘JAMB Late Application’, means to formally and genuinely validate candidates’ modes of admission by the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board.
If you still don’t understand the definition above, don’t worry! We will break it down bit by bit in layman’s terms, just keep reading.
If you get admission into a higher Institution in Nigeria, there is possibility that the Institution admitted you without JAMB’s knowledge or approval, as required by the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. And this could happen in two ways:
- You were admitted through part-time, pre-Science, diploma, direct entry and other remedial means.
-
You wrote UTME, and got an admission from your Institution, but your Institution did not notify JAMB of such admission.
Whichever way it might be, you need to do JAMB Regularization. And now, you know what JAMB Regularization means, you should do it as soon as you find out that you need it.
The bottom line is, if you need regularization but failed to do it, your application to NYSC will be declined. Below is how to find out if you need JAMB Regularization.
How to check if you need JAMB Regularization
- Go to the JAMB official website at www.jamb.org.ng/.
-
Scroll down to ”Admission Status”
-
Select the year you wrote UTME
-
Enter your JAMB Reg. No
-
Click “Enter”.
Once you click ‘enter’, if you see your admission details, then you don’t need to be regularized through JAMB. But if the message says something like, “Sorry no admission is given yet…”, that means you need to regularize.
Note: If you don’t have JAMB registration number to follow the steps above on how to check whether or not you need regularization, then you need JAMB Regularization.

Hello Mr. Humphery, there was a mistake with my date of birth during my jamb registration but I was too lazy to correct and hope I would have through with schooling before the due years then. But now as the situation of things in the country am now panicking if this will not affect me not to go for NYSC service. I put in for Direct Entry into some Universities in which I was not given admission then but it was confirmed that I’ve been regularized by jamb during my ND. And have submitted my files to the school where am doing my HND program now with the date of birth mistaken. My question is; can I go for Jamb date of birth correction and will my school accept to change/ update my data? Pls, your advice is urgently needed. I need you to put me through.
