WAEC 2024 WASSCE Results: Release Date and Key Updates. 

The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has announced a tentative release period for the 2024 WASSCE results for school candidates. These results are expected to be available between December 9th and December 15th, 2024, provided all post-examination processes, including grading and verification, proceed without disruptions. However, challenges such as financial delays may affect this timeline.

Examination Overview

The 2024 WASSCE took place from August 5 to September 20, involving over 460,000 candidates across Ghana. This year's examination was conducted at 1,000 centers, covering 1,003 schools nationwide. The candidates comprised 212,954 males and 247,657 females.

Potential Delays

WAEC has raised concerns over financial constraints caused by the government’s delay in fulfilling outstanding obligations. The institution disclosed that only GH¢60.9 million of the GH¢186 million budgeted for the examinations had been received by the time the exams concluded. These financial issues have threatened to disrupt the marking and grading process, potentially delaying the release of results.

Accessing the Results

Once released, candidates can check their results via the WAEC online portal or through a mobile shortcode service:

1. Online: Visit the WAEC Results Checker portal and input your Index Number, Examination Year, and a valid PIN from a results checker card.

2. Mobile: Dial 899550# to purchase a results checker and follow the prompts to access results on your phone.

Important Considerations

Candidates should note that results may be withheld in cases of examination malpractice or if investigations into irregularities are ongoing. WAEC remains committed to maintaining the credibility of the examination process.

Final Thoughts

The anticipated release of the 2024 WASSCE results is a critical milestone for candidates and their families. Despite the challenges, WAEC aims to uphold its standards in delivering accurate and timely results. Students are encouraged to stay updated via official WAEC communication channels and prepare to access their results when released.

For further updates, candidates may contact WAEC directly or monitor announcements on their official platforms.
