Everything about NYSC posting process, relocation applications, and choosing the best states for your service year in 2025.

NYSC Posting Process

NYSC postings are computer-generated and random, based on your institution, course, and national needs. Corps members are posted to one of four key sectors: education, health, infrastructure, or rural development.

• After registration, check your dashboard for deployment details.
• Print your call-up letter to know your orientation camp state.
• Post-camp posting to Primary Place of Assignment (PPA) is issued at the end of orientation.
• Concessional posting available during registration for married females or health grounds.

Relocation Process

Relocation (redeployment) can be applied for after orientation camp, not during registration except for concessional cases.

1. 1
   Complete Orientation Camp: Attend the 3-week camp in your assigned state.
2. 2
   Obtain Application Form: Get the relocation form from your State Coordinator's office.
3. 3
   Submit with Documents: Provide supporting documents for valid reasons (e.g., marriage certificate, medical report).
4. 4
   Wait for Approval: Applications are reviewed; if approved, print new posting letter. Relocation possible after 3 months in service for other reasons.
