When WAEC releases WASSCE results, candidates check them online with their index number and a results checker. Here is how.

What you need

  • Your index number.
  • A WAEC results checker: a serial number and a 12-digit PIN.
  • A phone or computer with internet.

The steps

  1. Go to ghana.waecdirect.org.
  2. Enter your index number.
  3. Select WASSCE and the exam year.
  4. Enter the checker serial number and PIN.
  5. Submit and view your results.
  6. Save a copy as a PDF or screenshot.

News reports say each checker can be used up to five times.

If the portal is slow

  • Results days are busy; try early morning or late night.
  • Use a stable connection.
  • Do not keep refreshing and resubmitting.

Results are provisional

Online results are provisional. Your school receives official results, and certificates come later.

Applying to university?

Universities may ask for your results checker or a verification. Keep your checker details safe.

Scam warning: WAEC warns against anyone who promises to change or upgrade results for money. Use only the official portal.
