The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has released the 2026 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) results, giving candidates the opportunity to access their grades through the official result-checking platform.
Candidates can now check their results online using their examination number and the required WAEC result-checking e-PIN.
How to Check Your 2026 WAEC Result
- Visit the official WAEC result-checking portal:
- Enter your 10-digit examination number in the space provided.
- Select the examination year — 2026.
- Select the appropriate examination type, such as WASSCE for School Candidates.
- Enter your WAEC e-PIN voucher number.
- Enter your result-checking PIN.
- Carefully check all the information entered to ensure there are no errors.

How to Check WAEC Result Via SMS
Candidates may also use the SMS option where available.
The required format is:

Send the message to 32327.

Candidates should ensure that the details are entered correctly and without unnecessary spaces.
What If the WAEC Portal Is Slow?
Candidates should not panic if the portal becomes slow or temporarily unavailable.
Large numbers of candidates may attempt to access their results immediately after release, potentially causing heavy traffic on the platform.
If the result does not appear, candidates should wait and try again later.
Candidates are also advised to use only the official WAEC result-checking platform and avoid unofficial websites requesting their examination details or PIN.
Important
Keep your WAEC examination number, e-PIN and result details safely. Candidates applying for admission should also check that their WAEC subjects and grades meet the O’Level requirements of their chosen institution and course.
