The Benue State Education Quality Assurance and Examinations Board, BEQAEB, has announced an extension to the registration period for the 2026 Basic Education Certificate Examination, BECE. The new deadline for PIN purchase is from 23 to 31 March 2026, and registration will run from 23 March to 7 April 2026.
This extension is intended for unregistered candidates, giving them more time to complete the registration process. Schools yet to complete their registration are advised to visit the BEQAEB portal and finish the process within the extended period.
The revised schedule for the registration period is as follows: PIN purchase runs from 23 to 31 March 2026, and registration runs from 23 March to 7 April 2026.
This extension may alleviate some of the pressure on students and schools in Benue State, but it also underscores the importance of timely registration for the BECE. For Nigerian students, the key takeaway is that it's crucial to stay on top of registration deadlines to avoid last-minute scrambles.
