Mobilization of Corp members usually takes place in batches (and more recently, in streams). Mobilization usually occurs twice in one year, with the two batches, A and B, going for service at two different points in the year. These batches, QA and B, can be further divided into Stream 1 & Stream 2.


The NYSC scheme, while compulsory for all graduates, may exclude some people for different reasons. One of the most common reasons is age.

The age limit set by the regulation body beyond which one cannot participate in the scheme is 30 years at the time of graduation. This limit takes into account the fact that there may be some delays in the education of some people who, upon graduation, would still need to gain employment. The strenuous activities involved, especially at the orientation camp are also taken into account, amongst other considerations.

Those who graduate at ages above this limit will usually be given a letter exempting them from partaking in the service year.
