The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) scheme is a mandatory one-year service for graduates of Nigerian tertiary institutions.
However, some situations exempt certain graduates from participating. This is where the NYSC Exemption Letter comes in, acting as an equivalent to the NYSC discharge certificate earned after service.

The NYSC Exemption Letter, also known as the Certificate of Exclusion, is issued to three main categories of individuals:
- Graduates above 30 years old: Full-time students who graduate after their 30th birthday are automatically exempt.
- Part-time graduates: Any graduate with a part-time degree, regardless of age.
- Exempted individuals: These include:

- Recipients of national awards like the Order of the Niger.
