- University I.D card
- Statement of Result
- 4 Photocopies of each (you may need less than 4 but not more than, except you like packing paper )
- Passport photograph.( Nysc would take any background, don’t let those photographers at camp deceive you)
Stationery

In fact wash it first so it doesn’t burn your skin
Provisions should be based on your preferences I took
- Milk
- Milo
- Sugar
- Cereal
- Biscuits
Camping Essentials
- Cup , covered bowl and cutlery
- Torch light/ rechargeable lamp
- Padlock for your box and locker in case you get one
- Bed sheet and a throw pillow
Cash– I took N25,000 and it was enough you could take more or less.
Nysc Lagos camp had atms so you can take your atm card as well.
I put this list together for my friend Onyinye , I’m hoping other people find it useful.
If you’ve been to Nysc camp ,what else do you think prospective corpers would need ,please let us know in the comment section.
Thank you so much!!!! This is so helpful.
