The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has shifted the registration deadline for the 2025 Computer-Based West African Senior School Certificate Examination (CB-WASSCE) for private candidates.
The new closing date is September 19, 2025, instead of the earlier September 5, 2025. This gives applicants more time to finalize their enrollment and prepare for the upcoming exam.
Digital Shift in WAEC Exams
The CB-WASSCE was introduced to modernize the examination system and cut down on manual errors. While many candidates welcome the move to digital registration, others remain cautious about the transition.
Why the Extension Matters
The extra two weeks provide relief to students who encountered difficulties during the first phase of registration. It also ensures more inclusivity, allowing candidates from different regions to complete the process without pressure.
Next Steps for Candidates
WAEC has urged all eligible private candidates to take advantage of the new deadline. Students are advised to follow the registration guidelines carefully to avoid mistakes that could affect their exam participation.
This extension reflects WAEC’s effort to make examinations more flexible, accessible, and fair for all candidates.
