FULL MEANING OF WASSCE RESULT STATUS

When checking your WASSCE result, you may encounter certain terms. Here’s what they mean:

1. Outstanding:
This means your result in one or more subjects is still being processed. It usually occurs when a student is marked as present, but the marks have not yet been finalized. This could be due to an extra answer sheet not properly attached or other technical issues.

Chances of release: Very high

2. Withheld
This occurs when many students from a center have similar answers, suggesting malpractice. WASSCE investigates the situation. If malpractice is confirmed, the results are seized.

Chances of release: Slim.

3. Held
Similar to “Withheld,” but usually tied to a specific candidate or when a center is strongly indicted for malpractice. This can include written remarks in your answer booklet.

If cleared after investigation, your result may be released.
If it turns to “Cancelled,” it’s over.

4. Result Not Available
This may be due to:
• Delay in uploading results
• Wrong exam type or year selected during checking
Check back later or retry with the correct details.

5. Indebted
Your school may owe WASSCE fees or materials. When this happens, results for the entire school might be withheld until the debt is cleared.
Contact your school for assistance.

6. Cancelled
This means WASSCE has confirmed malpractice or a major exam offense.
The result will not be released. There’s no going back.

NB: The traffic on the WASSCE site is too much. So chill a bit. You can check in the evening.
You can use your WASSCE card to check.

Good luck!
