What is the WASSCE

WASSCE, or the West African Senior School Certificate Examination, is a standardized test in West Africa that provides a certificate of secondary education completion and is used for university admission. It is administered by the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) for both private and school candidates in the region.

It is a major standardized examination for secondary school students in West Africa.

Passing the WASSCE results in a certificate that is a prerequisite for entering universities and other tertiary institutions.

Can I set up a sponsorship without filling out online forms?
