Zamfara State University (ZAMSU) Announces Update on NERD Clearance for 2025 Batch ‘C’ Graduates

Zamfara State University (ZAMSU), Talata Mafara, has issued an important notice to all graduating students and Prospective Corps Members (PCMs) regarding the Nigeria Education Repository and Databank (NERD) policy.

The university management received official communication from the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) Headquarters in Abuja concerning the enforcement of NERD clearance for the upcoming 2025 Batch ‘C’ mobilisation. According to the NYSC, following directives from the NERD Secretariat, NERD clearance will not be enforced for this batch of corps members.

This update allows ZAMSU graduates participating in the 2025 Batch ‘C’ NYSC mobilisation to proceed with their registration without needing NERD compliance at this stage. The NYSC has indicated that the NERD system will be fully implemented for subsequent batches once all necessary processes are finalised.

Graduating students are encouraged to stay informed and regularly check updates from both the NERD Secretariat and NYSC to ensure smooth mobilisation when the policy is eventually enforced.

The university management advises students to remain patient and cooperative during this transitional phase and appreciates their understanding. ZAMSU assures graduates that they will be promptly updated on any future changes affecting NYSC mobilisation.

In conclusion, the NERD clearance requirement has been suspended for the 2025 Batch ‘C’ mobilisation, and graduates should continue to follow official communications from the university and NYSC for guidance.
