Your WAEC GCE photocard is one of the documents you need before you can sit the exam. It doubles as your admission card, so you will need it to gain entry into the examination hall.

The photocard carries the holder’s passport photograph, full name, registration number, and examination centre. If you registered as a private candidate and your card didn’t print properly the first time, or you simply misplaced your copy, you can reprint it from the same WAEC GCE portal you used to register.

Why You Should Print an Extra Copy
Keep more than one printed copy of your photocard. Exam supervisors will turn you away at the hall without it, and reprinting at the last minute when network or printer access is scarce near exam centres can cost you precious time on exam day.
