NGThe Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) and the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) have introduced a one-time N4,000 fee for verifying WASSCE results for Nigerian tertiary admissions. This initiative aims to eliminate duplicate verification payments by allowing candidates to verify their results once via JAMB's platform, making the verified results accessible to all relevant institutions. The move reduces financial burden on candidates and streamlines the admission process. Institutions are prohibited from requesting additional verification fees if results were already validated through JAMB. The announcement was made in a joint statement shared with Premium Times.
