WAEC to release 2019 WASSCE results 45 days after exams

The management of the West Africa Examinations Council (WAEC) says it will 45 days after the last paper release the 2019 WASSCE results for prospective candidates who sat for the examination.

Currently, the Council has not announced any date for prospective candidates to check their 2019 WASSCE results online at their official website.

The Council said it has put much efforts to drastically reduce the waiting days for the release of the WASSCE results to at least 45 days instead of the long usual 60 to 90 days.

The Examination Council following the outbreak of the novel coronavirus postponed the conduct of the WASSCE for school candidates to August 2020, and also suspended the timetable since the previous date to conduct the examination was not possible.

The WASSCE examination started in August and ended successfully in the first week of September 219.
