If required, print the attachment yourself.
The earliest in-person collection time is 9:45 AM, but attendance is not recommended as all results are sent electronically.
Receipts are emailed automatically at the time of payment. If you cannot find it, please check Spam/Junk and search your email for: RESULTS SERVICES.
Priority services typically take 2–15 days. Non-priority services take 4–25 days. Your results will be sent to you as soon as we receive them from the exam board.
Certificates are issued around 4 months after results release. They are held at the centre for a limited time.
Two options:
1) Collect from the centre (Free). 11am–4pm, Mon–Thu. Bring photo ID.
2) Have it posted — Request postage at: www.examcentre.org/results → Select “Exam Certificates Postage.” One fee covers all certificates posted together.
If someone else collects for you, they must bring:
– Their own ID
– A copy of your ID
– A signed consent letter from you.
Certificates are printed after all results updates are final, which is why they are issued 4 months later.
You will receive the certificate showing your final grade.
You may pay later, ideally before certificates arrive at the centre.
However, most candidates pay for certificate postage at the same time as remark services for convenience.
