The Uganda National Examinations Board (UNEB) has officially released the 2024 Uganda Advanced Certificate of Education (UACE) results, allowing candidates, schools, and institutions to access them through multiple channels.
Daniel Odongo, the Executive Director of the Uganda National Examinations Board (UNEB), stated that 141,996 candidates registered for the 2024 UACE exams, an increase from 110,566 candidates in 2023. Among these, 61,957 were female, and 80,039 were male.
- Accessing UACE Results via School Portals
Schools can access the results immediately through the UNEB online portal. Headteachers and examination center administrators must log in using their assigned credentials to download and print results for their candidates.
- Accessing UACE Results via SMS
Candidates and guardians can check results using the UNEB SMS service by following these steps:
Open the messaging app on your mobile phone.
Type UACE followed by a space and then the candidate’s full index number (e.g., UACE 123456/001).
Send the message to 6600.
You will receive the results instantly via SMS.
This service is available on MTN and Airtel networks and is subject to standard SMS charges.
- Hard Copy Results and Certificate Distribution
While digital access is immediate, hard copies of results will be sent to schools at a later date. UNEB will communicate the specific collection dates.
Certificates will be printed after all necessary reviews and corrections are completed. Schools and individual candidates will be informed once they are ready for collection.
- Submission of Queries and Amendments
Candidates and school administrators should carefully review their results and submit any queries or amendment requests within 21 working days from the date of release. Requests should be made electronically through the UNEB portal for faster processing and timely issuance of certificates.
