The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has released certificates for its Senior School Certificate Examination written in May/June for SS3 pupils, and November/December, for private candidates last year.

In a statement signed by the Deputy Director, Public Affairs, Mr Yusuf Ari, candidates who sat for the examinations up to last year were directed to collect their certificates from their former schools and WAEC Offices nationwide.

The statement also directed private candidates who wrote in previous years to collect their certificates by December 31 or risk paying extra to secure it afterwards.

"The Council also wishes to advise candidates who sat for previous diets of the November/December General Certificate of Education, Ordinary/Advance Levels (GCE O/A Levels), Senior School Certificate Examination (SSCE) (Private), WASSCE (Private), who have not collected their certificates to do so at WAEC zonal, branch or satellite offices, not later than December 31, 2013.

"Candidates who fail to collect their certificates after that date may be charged an extra fee for the custody of the certificates,” the statement said.
