This list which is mostly required by candidates seeking to participate in the one-year compulsory youth service corps program contains the candidates’ full names, university attended, and course of study. So, if you are wondering why is it necessary for you to check your name on the list, then you should know that besides helping you know your eligibility of participating in the compulsory NYSC exercise, checking your status on the JAMB Matriculation List will also help you know if your admission is recognized by jamb.
