Discover solutions for canceled, withheld, or poor 2024 WASSCE results, including retake options and alternative admissions paths.

What to Do if Your 2024 WASSCE Results Are Canceled, Withheld, or Have Poor Grades

Following the release of the 2024 WASSCE results by the West African Examination Council (WAEC), some students have faced challenges such as bad grades, canceled results, or withheld results. For these students, there are several options to explore to remedy the situation and secure a brighter future. Parents and students must get assistance from remedial schools and WAEC-approved cafes for the private WASSCE registration due to the need to get the students thumprints scanned.

The registration is expected to end on 31st December, but this portal expects the closing date to be extended due to the late release of the WASSCE results for the 2024 school candidates.

Advice for Students with Withheld 2024 WASSCE Results

1. Register for WASSCE for Private Students Immediately:
   Do not wait for WAEC’s investigation panel or hope for a favorable decision. WAEC rarely changes its verdict when results are withheld. To secure your future, register for the 2024 January WASSCE for private candidates without delay.
2. Understand the Likelihood of Change:
   The chances of withheld results being released or changed by WAEC are extremely low—about 99% remain unchanged.

Advice for Students with Cancelled 2024 WASSCE Results: 2024 WASSCE canceled results solutions

If all your results are cancelled, your only option is to retake the subjects cancelled by WAEC. However, if the cancellation affected only some results, you can resit those specific subjects.

If the cancelled results will not impact your admission into a diploma program, consider taking advantage of the opportunity as explained for withheld results.
