NYSC Releases Call-Up Numbers for 2025 Batch C Prospective Corps Members

The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has officially released the call-up numbers for the 2025 Batch C prospective corps members. The announcement was made through the scheme’s verified X (formerly Twitter) handle on Tuesday.

According to the management, the release follows the successful completion of online registration, which ran from November 4 to November 9, 2025, for both locally and foreign-trained graduates. The post stated, “The NYSC management is pleased to announce that call-up numbers for 2025 Batch C Prospective Corps Members have been released, based on the order of registration.”

The NYSC explained that due to limited space across orientation camps in the 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory, only about 40 percent of registered graduates will be mobilized for the upcoming Batch C orientation programme.

Those Not Deployed Will Be Deferred

The management assured that those who could not secure space in the current batch would be automatically moved to the next exercise. The statement added, “Rest assured, those not accommodated will be automatically moved to the next Batch, which will take place shortly after the Batch C exercise.”

NYSC Batch C Orientation to Begin November 19

The 2025 Batch C orientation course is scheduled to commence on November 19. This phase marks the beginning of the mandatory one-year national service for Nigerian graduates under the NYSC scheme. The management reiterated its commitment to ensuring a smooth and well-organized experience for all participants.

“Management remains committed to ensuring a hitch-free orientation exercise and a fulfilling service year experience for all prospective corps members,” the statement read.

Verification and Deployment Schedule for Foreign-Trained Graduates

As part of the mobilisation process, the NYSC earlier outlined that pre-camp physical verification for foreign-trained graduates will take place from November 9 to November 13, 2025. In addition, ICT operations related to deployment will run from November 12 to November 15.

Deployment and call-up letters will be made available between November 16 and 18. During this period, corps-producing institutions will facilitate online printing of deployment letters, while prospective corps members are expected to print their call-up letters from their NYSC dashboards.

NYSC Urges Patience and Compliance

The NYSC advised all prospective corps members to check their dashboards regularly and follow official updates only through verified communication channels to avoid misinformation. The management also appealed for patience from those who may not be included in the current batch, assuring them of participation in subsequent batches without re-registration.
