Let's move on.WAEC GCE Registration 2020 Aug/Sept Starting Date
WAEC GCE normal registration period starting date has NOT BEEN ANNOUNCED YET.
I will update this article as soon as the registration starting date is announced by WAEC Board.
Until then, drop a comment below to receive update when it is out.
Candidates who are interested in obtaining the form should proceed with the registration process before the closing date.
WAEC GCE 2nd Series 2020 Form Closing Date
The closing date for normal registration has NOT BEEN ANNOUNCED YET since the registration has not even started.
If you do not register before the deadline, two things will happen:- It is either you miss WAEC GCE and hence go for other O'level examination like NECO or WAEC SCCE next year.
- You register for WAEC GCE second series as a walk-in candidate.
WAEC GCE Walk-in candidates registration is for intending candidates for the WASSCE for private candidates, who were unable to register during the normal registration period.
This process will be available throughout the duration of writing the examination, and it commences once the normal registration has closed.
I will be providing more information on this later in this article about how to register as a walk-in candidate, price of WAEC GCE walk-in candidate form and how it works. Click here to read about it now.For now, let's focus on the normal registration process.
Before you register for WAEC GCE, I will like to show you how the form looks like.
That way, you can fill the form before you go for the registration and will help to prevent unnecessary errors.

- You MUST conclude registration within two weeks of second access to the website during the registration period.

- Make sure you print the Admission Notice/Photo Card as evidence of successful registration which will serve as identification during the examination. The Result Checker PIN will also be on the Photo Card. Only Digital Personal Scanner should be used for fingerprint registration.
Personally, I will advise you to find an agent that is trusted to help you with the registration to avoid stories that touch later.
- You should view the Information VCD before they register for the examination.
- You should note that registration fee is not refundable.
- You should print the examination Timetable at the completion of their registration.
- Entries must be uploaded with good quality passport size photographs, not "wait and get" photographs. The background of such photographs MUST NOT BE BLUE OR RED. The size should be 275 by 314 pixels. Entries with unacceptable passport photographs will be rejected.
- You should study the Regulations and Syllabuses as well as the Timetable for the examination which they can download from WAEC website (www.waeconline.org.ng/) using the Registration PIN.
- You must go to examination halls in mufti and without arms. No professional uniform of any kind will be allowed in the examination halls.
- The entire results of candidates who sit the examination in more than one centre will be cancelled.
- Smoking is not allowed in the examination hall.
- Any candidate that comes into the examination hall with mobile phone(s) and /or electronic gadget(s) will have his or her entire results cancelled.
- Candidates must ensure that their entries are correctly completed before uploading as the Council will not be held responsible for errors in candidates' particulars. Request for correction will NOT BE entertained on any information which a candidate voluntarily gives at the point of registration as soon as the examination commences .
- Candidates must come into the examination hall with their original Photo Cards.
- Candidates who engage in examination malpractice will not only have their results cancelled, but may be prosecuted.
Now, if you missed the normal registration period, you can still register as a Walk-in candidate. Here's how.
Like I said earlier, Walk-in candidates registration is for intending candidates for the WASSCE for private candidates, who were unable to register during the normal registration period.
The "walk-in candidates" registration will commence after the deadline for normal registration and continue throughout the duration of the examination.
Candidates who wish to register for the examination after the close of entries may be accommodated as "Walk-in-Candidates" provided they register not less than twenty four hours to the scheduled time of the paper (s) they intend to write. The "Walk-in- Candidates" fee is Twenty Five Thousand Naira (N25.000.00) only.
