Self-placement
Some 108,025 (18.44%) qualified candidates could not be matched with any of their choices.
All such students are, therefore, to do Self–placement to select from available schools.
According to the GES statement, if a student is not matched with any of his/her choices from the automatic placement system, he/she will be redirected to the Self-Placement Portal.
From the portal, select a school by providing the information below:
- Region
- Residential preference
- School
- Programme of choice
- Click on Submit
- Print the form and visit the school to begin the admission process
Note: Schools Selected on Self-Placement Portal can be changed as many times as the candidate wishes on the portal until they enroll in a school.
The GES also indicated that apart from the National Solution Centre at the GNAT Hall, Adabraka and the Regional Solution Centres at the various Regional Education Offices, they can also call their helpline on 0308258001 for all concerns.
