July 11, 2023

Completing your higher education is an accomplishment worth celebrating, and for graduates of the National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN), the next step towards professional growth and personal development is obtaining an Exclusion Letter from the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC). We will guide NOUN graduates through the NYSC procedure to obtain their Exclusion Letter, ensuring a smooth transition into the post-graduation phase.

Online Registration:
The first step for NOUN graduates is to visit the NYSC portal (https://portal.Nysc.Org.Ng/) and create an account. Provide the required information and generate a unique identification number (NYSC Call-Up Number). Keep this number safe, as it will be used throughout the NYSC process.

Document Verification:
After online registration, NOUN graduates need to proceed to their study centre or NOUN headquarters for document verification. The required documents may include a printout of the NYSC online registration slip, originals and photocopies of academic credentials, passport photographs, and other relevant identification documents. Ensure all documents are complete and meet the specified requirements.

Requesting Exclusion Letter:
As NOUN graduates are exempted from the mandatory one-year National Youth Service Corps program, they are eligible to request an Exclusion Letter. Submit a formal application for an Exclusion Letter at the NYSC office or NOUN headquarters through your study centre. Provide all necessary documents, including academic transcripts, to support your application.

Processing and Collection:
The NYSC office will process your application for the Exclusion Letter. This process may take some time, so it is essential to be patient. Once the processing is complete, you will be notified to collect your Exclusion Letter. Visit the NYSC office/website or NOUN headquarters to receive the letter in person. Ensure you have the necessary identification documents when collecting the Exclusion Letter.

Utilizing the Exclusion Letter:
The Exclusion Letter serves as proof that you have been exempted from the NYSC program. It is an important document for future employment opportunities and further studies. Keep the Exclusion Letter in a safe place, and make certified copies as needed for various purposes.
