Earlier, Legit.ng reported that JAMB confirmed the August deadline for national diploma (ND) students of 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020 sets to regularise if they do not possess its (JAMB's) admission letters.
It maintained that failure by the concerned students to regularise within the stipulated timeline will disqualify them from participating in the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC).
The body added that ND students who did not regularise will also be prohibited from applying for direct entry (DE) — a route that can get them admission to 200 level in the university.
