    Let \(\lbrace M_k\rbrace^\infty_{k=1}\) be a sequence of closed, singular, minimal hypersurfaces in a closed Riemannian manifold \((N^{n+1}, g)\), \(n + 1\geq 3\). Suppose, the volumes of \(M_k\) are uniformly bounded from above and the \(p\)th Jacobi eigenvalues \(\lambda_p\)'s of \(M_k\) are uniformly bounded from below. Then the author proves that there exists a closed, singular, minimal hypersurface \(M\) in \(N\), with the above-mentioned volume and eigenvalue bounds, such that, possibly after passing to a subsequence, \(M_k\) weakly converges (in the sense of varifolds) to \(M\), possibly with multiplicities. Moreover, the convergence is smooth and graphical over the compact subsets of \(\mathrm{reg}(M)/Y\), where \(Y\) is a finite subset of \(\mathrm{reg}(M)\) with \(|Y|\leq p- 1\). As a corollary, he gets the compactness of the space of closed, singular, minimal hypersurfaces with uniformly bounded volume and index. These results generalize the previous theorems of \textit{L. Ambrozio} et al. [J. Geom. Anal. 26, No. 4, 2591--2601 (2016; Zbl 1354.53069)] and \textit{B. Sharp} [J. Differ. Geom. 106, No. 2, 317--339 (2017; Zbl 1390.53065)] in higher dimensions. The author also shows that if \(\Sigma\) is a singular, minimal hypersurface with \(H^{n-2}(\mathrm{sing}(\Sigma))=\emptyset\), then the index of the varifold associated to \(\Sigma\) coincides with the index of \(\mathrm{reg}(\Sigma)\) (with respect to compactly supported normal vector fields on \(\mathrm{reg}(\Sigma)\)).
