How to check your WAEC result online

If you have a WAEC result-checker PIN — from a scratch card or bought online — you can check your WASSCE result yourself in a couple of minutes on the official portal. Here's exactly how.

What you need

• Your WAEC examination number — 10 digits (a 7-digit centre number plus your 3-digit candidate number).
• The examination year and exam type (e.g. WASSCE for School Candidates).
• A result-checker PIN and serial number — from a card, or bought online in seconds.

How to check your WAEC result

1. Go to the official portal: waecdirect.org.
2. Enter your 10-digit examination number.
3. Select the examination year (e.g. 2025).
4. Select the exam type (School Candidate, or Private/GCE).
5. Enter the PIN and serial number from your result-checker card.
6. Click Submit — your result appears.

One PIN checks one result, up to five times. WAEC's own FAQ confirms a single e-PIN can be used to check a result a maximum of 5 times, for one candidate only. After that — or to check a different candidate — you'll need a new PIN. So check on a device you trust, and save your result.

You can also check by SMS: text WAEC*ExamNo*PIN*ExamYear to 32327 (charges apply; the SMS shortcode can change each season, so the web portal is the most reliable route).
