The "WAEC result checker" is an online space proveded by WAEC as a body to ensure students who participated in
the WASSCE exam check their exam (private or schools). After the exam, the marking of scripts is handled by
examiners appointed by WAEC. They are usually educationists who are familiar with the classroom situation and
their identities are usually revealed to the public. Please be informed that the information available to you
on the WAEC result checker (WAECDIRECT) are:- WASSCE for school candidates results
- WASSCE for private candidates - First Series results

It doesn't matter if you are a school candidate or a private candidate. You see, by default, WAEC usually make its result available 45 days after the last paper.

Information about WAEC(WASSCE) result checker pin, serial number, scratch card
paragraph
To make you informed about some information you must know before you check your result, I would like to consider
the following headings below
paragraph
What is a e-PIN?
paragraph
Answer: The e-PIN stands for Electronic Personal Identification Number. In WAECDIRECT website, it is a
unique 10-digit or 12-digit number that is required to check your result. The e-PIN enables direct access
to a candidate's results via multiple channels. The e-PIN is found in a valid WAEC Voucher/scratch card
paragraph
Where can I buy an e-PIN?
paragraph
Answer: An Electronic PIN may be purchased at the National office of WAEC and at any of its Zonal and
Branch Offices across Nigeria. From time to time it may become available at any other outlets so designated
by WAEC. The reviewed price for the e-PIN is N1,500 although it is subject to change
paragraph
How many times can I check my results?
paragraph
Be informed that you can only check your result up to a maximum of 5 (five) times with the use of 1 (one)
e-PIN. In order to check further after exhausting the allowed 5 (five) times, you will need to purchase
another e-PIN which will entitle you to another 5 (five) result checks.
paragraph
Can I use one e-PIN to check more than one result?
paragraph
No! WAEC mentioned that may only use one e-PIN Voucher to check one result. To check another result of interest, you will
require a new e-PIN Voucher. If you misuse a e-PIN Voucher by attempting to check another result different
from the first one checked, you will be penalised as having used the e-PIN, and will be presented with the appropriate error message.

A result checker e-PIN Voucher purchased in a previous year is still valid for use in the next year but note
you can only use one e-PIN Voucher to check one result. To check another (different) result, you will require
a new e-PIN Voucher
