The management of the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) says it would release the results of the May/June 2024 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) today.

The examination was written by 1,814,344 candidates in 22,229 secondary schools nationwide.

Acting Head of Public Affairs, Mrs. Moyosola Adesina, said the Head of National Office (HNO), Dr. Amos Dangut will announce the release of May/June 2024 WASSCE at Yaba headquarters.

Dangut had said in April 2024 that out of 1.8 million students, 902,328 (49.73 percent) are males and 912,016 females (50.27 percent). They were examined in 76 subjects, made up of 197 papers while 30,000 secondary school teachers supervised the examination.
The release of the results will brighten the chances of candidates, who applied for admission in 2023/2024 academic session into the universities, polytechnics and colleges of education.

Many of the candidates, who wrote the 2024 school examination, did so as awaiting results.

Also, some institutions including the private institutions have started the admission process with dates for the Post-UTME screening/test.

Dangut said: “In tune with our recent tradition, the results of candidates sitting the examination will be released 45 days after the conduct of the last paper, while certificates will be printed and issued to schools in less than 90 days after the release of results.”

He added that the results will be released along with the digital copies of candidates’ certificates, which can be accessed on the digital certificate platform.
