Placement Statistics
This year, out of the 563,339 results received from the West African Examinations Council (WAEC), 553,155 candidates qualified for placement. Out of these, 447,698 candidates (80.93%) were automatically placed in one of their preferred schools.
However, 104,918 qualified candidates were not matched with any of their selected schools. Of this group, 73,390 (13.27%) were placed in schools similar to their original choices. These students are given the option to accept or reject the offer. If students reject the recommended school, they can select a new one through the Self-Placement platform.
In total, 521,088 candidates, representing 94.20% of the qualified students, have successfully been placed in schools. Not-placed students are encouraged to use the Self-Placement platform to select a school.
