Dear friend, standard of living is not to be confused with cost of living. I think you wanted to say cost of living up there. Cheers

Yes please, not all that live in Abj are "rich'' after all....
I mean the cost of living is high. Thanks a bunch

Cost of living, my fear too..

Leosmart855:
Cost of living, my fear too..

yes the cost of living in Abuja is high. you can reduce cost by staying outcast of Abuja. e. g lugbe alaita, karmajiji, nyanya. these places are quite affordable. unless you or your parents are rich before you can think of staying in heart of Abuja. we should learn to cut our khaki according to our size. traffic in Abuja is also a factor to consider, it can be really frustrating.

NaH Abuja I wan serve too o

less than 100k for house is okay. plus mpape is really close to town. it's alright to start small, in fact it's not wise to start lavishly. Anything above 100k for house is too much as a corper.

To check if the course you studied has been accredited and approved by NYSC you can do so by visiting portal.nysc.org.ng and click on accredited institution/programme. 1. select your programme i.e monotechnic, polytechnic or university. 2. then select your institution. the list of accredited courses for the institution will be displayed.

23rd is fast approaching and on 19th senate list will be uploaded. so let's keep the required documents handy.
1. we should make sure we have a valid and working e mail address. if you've forgotten your password retrieve it or better still open another one. it won't take us anything to open a new email.
2. a working GSM number.
3. For some of us like me that have forgotten their school details like matric number, jamb registration number etc. try and remember it and write them down.
4. All your school certificate including jamb registration and waec neco etc.
5. Try and have passport at least 12 copies, they can never be too much.
Lastly remember that those who register on time have better chance to serve in competitive states like Abuja and Lagos.
I wish us all the best, I pray our heart desires are met.

The registration is totally free, although you have an option of paying 3,000 naira, so that you can print your call up letter online or going to your school to collect it the choice is yours.

Information reaching me is that most schools have started sending their approved senate list to NYSC. and uploading is going on right now, although you can't check it online yet, till 19th of this month. Try and check your school if your name is on your school pre mobilization list.

You can check it in NYSC portal at portal.nysc.org.ng click on check senate list or it's equivalent. you'll be required to insert your school, matric number, date of birth. As for the medical fitness it's required during registration in camp. All the best bro, hope I've answered your question.

thanks. i heard biometrics is inclusive during registration how true is that?

if i dont have a scanner machine it means i cant do the registration on my own, right?

Yes biometric is involved in the registration and your biometric will be confirmed during camp registration. if you don't have finger print scanner, you can't do the registration. I will advise that you just go to cafe for the registration. it won't cost more than 500, it will be easier and faster since its what they do all the time. Best of luck
