Though I don't have much experience about this. I don't think so, because, NYSC discharge or exemption cert is compulsory for accreditation.

Education / Preparing For The 2019/2020 Commonwealth Scholarship Nomination Interview by esperantisto(m): 10:12pm On Jan 07
Disclaimer
This is based on the information I have. Some of the things here may no longer apply if the people at FSB make changes to the modalities of the interview process.

tl;dr
• Print this accreditation form (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1it7E2ekQryqTsOuhDlwRfW6lCNPXBvyW/view?usp=drivesdk), fill it, then photocopy it
• Make four copies of all your documents and go along with two brown envelopes for two sets of the documents.

In case you didn't know, tl;dr means too long didn't read.

How to get to FSB Office for Accreditation
This is not a concern for many people but if you don't want to hire a taxi (drop), getting directions will be easier if you tell the people you are asking you are going to Arewa Suites – people are more familiar with it and it's directly opposite FSB office. The chatbot at www.lara.ng may be able to help you with directions.

Accreditation
For the first day of the interview, the accreditation was done at the hotel because of the opening ceremony. For the second and third days, the accreditation will be done at the FSB office opposite Arewa Suites, after which applicants are to move down to Rosebud Hotel for the interview.

During the accreditation, they will check if your documents are complete. You will be given a form to fill, attach your passport photographs, then photocopy. The forms are unlikely to be in abundant supply, so, you may have to photocopy a blank one, fill it, then photocopy again. To avoid the queue at the photocopy centres, you can download a copy of the form from here (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1it7E2ekQryqTsOuhDlwRfW6lCNPXBvyW/view?usp=drivesdk). Print it, fill it, attach your passport photographs then photocopy before going to the venue. This will save you a lot of time.

Note that two passport photographs are to be attached to the form side by side on the space provided. This may seem counterintuitive but that's what the people at FSB want.

There are seven panels for the accreditation and interviews based on disciplines. These are:
1. Agriculture and Veterinary Studies
2. Education and Humanities
3. Engineering PhD
4. Engineering Master's
5. Sciences (Pure and Applied) and Environmental Sciences/Studies
6. Health Sciences and Paramedicals
7. Social Sciences

I'm not sure whether choosing a panel is based on your previous qualifications or your proposed course of study.

We were asked to arrange our documents in the following order:
Order of Documents
1. Academic Certificates
2. Professional Certificate
3. Reference Reports
4. Contributions to Journals
5. Sample of work, prizes and achievements
6. Evidence of Admission
7. NYSC/Evidence of Working Experience

Please note that you are to bring four sets of photocopies of all your documents and not two as stated in the adverts FSB released. This wasted so many people's time today. You are to put just two sets in brown envelopes. Write your name, EAS Number, geopolitical zone, course of study, proposed university, phone number and email address on the brown envelopes.

How to Get to Rosebud Hotel from FSB Office
Since there will be many applicants at FSB office, you can team up with other applicants to hire a taxi to take you to the hotel, then share the cost. You can also walk down to Mashalashi junction – which is very close to FSB office – and take a cab or bus to Federal Secretariat. Then walk down to the hotel, it's very close.

The interview
These are my tips for the interview:
• Make sure your documents are complete (four copies of each document)
• Go with evidence of community development if you have any
• Revise your current affairs
• Expect a simple question from your discipline
• Prepare to explain the impact of your proposed study on the country

Final Note
Please don't ask me for the questions I was asked. I believe it's unethical for me to tell you that. I will be glad to help with other things within my capacity.

Best of luck.

Best of luck to us all.

I just found out about this on Sunday and I checked all the threads on Nairaland, no one knew, I am too far to make it and I'm yet to secure admission from 4 schools I've applied for. The thing pain me because the deadline for submission of referee report was last week 20th November, so I didn't think the interview will start till mid December.
Anyways I might try again next year.
Good luck to all that will make it.
Please update us on how it went
