“The N50,000 fee for certificate reprints is subject to periodic review.”
“The requests for reprints will only be accepted within one year of the original certificate issuance. After this period, the council will no longer entertain such requests.”

The New Telegraph reported in addition to the reprinting policy, NECO has set a one-month deadline for candidates to submit requests for the correction of results.

Legit.ng understands that NECO announced this policy a few weeks after releasing the results for the June/July 2024 Senior School Certificate Examination (SSCE), with over 60% of candidates achieving five credits including English and Mathematics.
