JAMB, WAEC peg WASSCE result verification fee at N4,000

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) and the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) have announced that candidates seeking admission into Nigerian tertiary institutions will be required to pay a verification fee of N4,000 for their West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) O'Level results. This fee will only need to be paid once, through JAMB, and the verified results will then be made available to the institutions where the candidates are seeking admission.

The two examination bodies have clarified that tertiary institutions will utilize the verified results shared by JAMB for admission screening, processing, and other administrative purposes, and candidates will not be required to pay for another verification. This change follows the introduction of a remote result verification system by JAMB, which allows candidates to upload and verify their O'Level results from home or any internet-enabled location.
