WAEC Set to Announce May/June 2024 WASSCE Results Today

The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) is poised to release the results of the May/June 2024 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) today.

This announcement has been eagerly awaited by the 1,814,344 candidates who participated in the examination across 22,229 secondary schools nationwide.

Mrs. Moyosola Adesina, the Acting Head of Public Affairs for WAEC, confirmed that the Head of National Office (HNO), Dr. Amos Dangut, will make the official announcement from WAEC’s Yaba headquarters.

The release of the results is a significant milestone for students across the country, many of whom are depending on these results for admission into universities, polytechnics, and colleges of education for the 2023/2024 academic session.

The 2024 WASSCE saw a balanced participation with 902,328 male candidates (49.73%) and 912,016 female candidates (50.27%).

These students were examined in 76 subjects across 197 papers, with 30,000 teachers supervising the examination to ensure its integrity.

Dr. Dangut had earlier stated that WAEC is committed to maintaining its tradition of releasing results within 45 days after the conclusion of the exams.

The results will be accompanied by digital copies of the candidates’ certificates, accessible through WAEC’s digital certificate platform.

This development marks a continued effort by WAEC to streamline processes and offer more accessible and secure ways for students to obtain their academic credentials.

For the candidates, the release of these results is a crucial step in their academic journey. Many of them are currently in the process of applying for tertiary education, with several institutions already having begun their admission processes, including scheduling Post-UTME screenings and tests.

The timely release of these results will enable students who applied with “awaiting results” status to move forward in their educational pursuits without delay.

As the announcement draws near, the anticipation among candidates, parents, and educators is palpable.

The release of the 2024 WASSCE results today will not only provide clarity for students’ future academic paths but also reinforce WAEC’s commitment to maintaining high standards in the administration and management of secondary school examinations across West Africa.
