The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has released the results of the 2026 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) for School Candidates.
WAEC announced the release of the results on Wednesday through a post on its official X handle, directing candidates to access their results online.
Candidates are required to generate their Personal Identification Number (PIN) and serial number through the WAEC website before checking their results on the official result portal.
The result-checking process also requires candidates to provide their examination number and other registration details, including the National Identification Number (NIN) used during registration, alongside contact details for verification.
A total of about 1.96 million candidates from more than 24,200 secondary schools across Nigeria participated in the examination, which was held from April 21 to June 19, 2026.
The 2026 WASSCE was conducted using both the traditional paper-based format and the computer-based testing (CBT) option, with more schools adopting the CBT system compared with previous years.
WAEC had earlier announced that the results would be released approximately 45 days after the conclusion of the final paper.
The release follows the earlier publication of results for the 2026 First Series of the Computer-Based WASSCE for Private Candidates.
