Changing your date of birth or course of study is possible on the NYSC online portal dashboard.
The NYSC change of birth portal dashboard is the online platform where the National Youth Service Corps members can make corrections to the error with their date of birth.
Many prospective youth corpers make mistakes with their date of birth or course of study during their online registration on the NYSC portal. For this reason, you can do a change of date or course of study on the NYSC portal login dashboard.
The NYSC discharge certificate carries your date of birth, full name, NYSC certificate & Call Up number and year of service.
A mistake with your date of birth on the discharge certificate will hinder your chances of employment and appointment for political offices.
In this post, I will show you the easy steps on how you can apply for a change of date of birth and course of study on the NYSC portal.
Let me know in the comment if you have any questions or need further assistance. I would love to hear from you.

NYSC Date of Birth
The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) uses WAEC and JAMB exam date of birth. Your date of birth (DOB) registration with these examination boards must be the same.
Any discrepancy with your date of birth will affect you in the future.
It will take you between twenty-four (24) to forty-eight (48) hours to change your date of birth on the NYSC online portal.
The NYSC change of date of birth is free.
NYSC Age Requirement
The NYSC age requirement for prospective youth service corpers is thirty (30) years. Prospective corp members cannot register for the National Youth Service Corps if they are above thirty (30) years.
Graduates above thirty (30) years would get the NYSC exemption certificate.
There is no disadvantage to getting the NYSC exemption certificate letter.
NYSC uses the date of birth on your JAMB and WAEC certificates for mobilization for the youth service orientation camp.
The only way to reduce your age for NYSC is to change your date of birth on the JAMB portal through regularization. You would also have to update your age with your school senate committee.
NYSC Course of Study
The NYCS Change of Course of study is available on the NYSC online portal dashboard.

Hello sir .
Please , I did jamb Regularisation in 2021 , my jamb profile is showing the correct date of birth
I was exempted form nysc service , I thought I could make use of my neco result to correct it but I later learned that I can only use a WAEC result .
Is there anything I can do to remove the exemption?
In all my documents I have been using 1996 till date but after I was given my Nysc certificate last month, I found it was 1994 . I have never made such mistake in my life before and I think it’s from jamb regularization
Pls what can I do about it ?
Annie,
You will need to get an affidavit to use with the certificate.
Sorry about your experience.
I did change of grade level after registration and it hasn’t reflected after 4 days what could be the case and will I still be sent a call up letter?

Can i change my DOB on jamb portal for regularization and hope it will reflect during nysc registration,and it won’t affect later
Yes, Damilola
It will not affect you. I am sure the DOB corresponds with other of your certificates.
Good Afternoon, i was mobilized for NYSC in 2017 but i was unable to meet up with camp, i am 30 now & i just want to revalidate, am i still qualify to serve.
Your age calculation is based on when your results were approved by your University’s Senate.

Hi, gudevening sir, finished my last exam December 2021because of asuu strike nd I was 30 on October 2021,am i due for service.
Pls what can I do with discharge NYSC certificate that does not tally with weac certificate.
Hello Oladeji,
The WAEC certificate not tallying should not be a problem. A problem occurs when it’s your JAMB details that are not tallying.
But depending on why it is not tallying, you can decide to swear an affidavit.

Please, can i still change my DOB through jamb portal after my nysc registrations (before camp)? though i have not made payment yet .

Yes, Cynthia,
It is possible to change your date of birth (DOB) on the JAMB portal even after NYSC registration, provided you have not completed your NYSC registration and have not made the required payment.
To change your DOB on the JAMB portal, follow these steps:
1. Visit the JAMB eFacility portal at https://portal.jamb.gov.ng/efacility/
2. Login with your JAMB email address and password.
3. Click “Application for Correction of Data” from the list of available services.
4. Select “Change of Date of Birth” from the drop-down menu and click on “Continue.”
5. Follow the instructions to complete the change of DOB process.
6. Print out the confirmation slip for future reference after completing the process.
Also, ensure that the information provided during the change of DOB process is accurate and matches the information on your other documents, including your NYSC registration.
No it doesn’t have to. You’ll just have to use the date of birth on your Jamb for NYSC registration
Am having issue of date of birth on dashboard…,I have the correct one on my waec but wrong on my dashboard….can it still be corrected …..have done the correction but it is not reflecting
Dear Toyin,
I suggest you exercise patience. It should reflect within a week or 2.
But if it doesn’t I recommend you go to the JAMB office to resolve it.
Can I still change my course of study despite me already serving?
Is it compulsory that the Dob in my jamb tally with my waec before i can be mobilize for Nysc?
Temmy,
Yes, your JAMB profile’s date of birth is what must be correct for your NYSC mobilization.
The DOB on my JAMB and other documents is 1998
And WAEC is 1996. Will that affect my registration for NYSC? What can I do
What is your correct date of birth?
The DOB on your JAMB will be used for your NYSC registration.
No it doesn’t have to. You’ll just have to use the date of birth on your Jamb for NYSC registration
I have requested for a change of course on my NYSC portal for four days but the change has not reflected on my data, and orientation camp has commenced, what do I do

Sorry about your experience.

It should reflect within a week.
Pls help. There was a mistake on my Jamb DOB. It appears 22nd march instead of 20th march. The mistake didnt affect the year and the month though. Just the 2days variation. Meanwhile, all other credentials of mine bears my correct DOB. Can I make the changes before or during NYSC registration?
I made correction on my dob in jamb office, after nysc registration, instead of call up letter, I receive letter that nysc would only effect correction on already produce exemption letter, after three month of registration. some site say 24 hour after registration,
my question is would still be mobilise for the next batch
Hello Damilare,
I hope you are having a great day.
Has the new date of birth been reflected on your JAMB portal?
The time duration for effecting such changes varies.
But it could have been resolved in less than a month.
What is the response from the JAMB office?
