If you are a candidate that sat for the recently completed 2026 WAEC May/June West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE), then this is for you.

When will WAEC release the results?

First and foremost, please note that the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has not yet announced an official release date, we can make a reasonable estimate based on WAEC’s usual timeline and recent updates.

In previous years, WAEC usually release result for their May/June WASSCE about 45 days after the last paper. So, if the Council will follow the same pattern this year, you should be expecting your result to be released around early August. However, this is just a speculation until WAEC announces an official.

It is best advised that you rely only on updates from WAEC and avoid social media posts or websites claiming the results are already out without official confirmation.
