The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has announced the extension of its November/December (Private) 2014 registration to August 25.
This was contained in a press statement issued by the Council’s Deputy Director (Public Affairs) Mr YD Yari on Monday.
According to Mr Yari, this was in response to appeals from candidates, parents, guardians and other stakeholders.
He however disclosed that no extra charges will be demanded during this extension. Intending candidates, he said, would still be required to pay the normal registration fee.
‘All intending candidates should ensure that their entries are uploaded not later than 12.00 midnight on Monday, August 25, when the registration website will be shut down,” he said.
It will be recalled that WAEC had, only a week ago, released the result of its May/June, 2014, Examination in which only 31.28% of the total candidates obtained credits in five subjects including English and Mathematics.
