Applications for the re-scrutiny of the 2025 (2026) G.C.E. Ordinary Level Examination results will close today (08), the Department of Examinations announced.
The online application process, which began on June 25, is open to both school and private candidates. The Department has instructed applicants to submit their requests individually through its official online portal, noting that applications sent through any other method will not be accepted.
Candidates can submit applications by visiting the Department’s official website and accessing the Exam Information Centre under the Our Services section.
Applicants who already have user accounts must log in using their examination index number and National Identity Card (NIC) number, while first-time users are required to register with their NIC number and mobile phone number.
The Department has also advised candidates to carefully read the technical and general instructions and watch the instructional video available on the portal before submitting their applications.
The fee for re-scrutiny has been set at Rs. 200 per subject, payable via credit card, debit card, or at any post office.
After completing the payment, candidates are required to download and retain the PDF copy of their application. A confirmation SMS will also be sent once the application has been successfully submitted.
The Department further stated that only one online application will be accepted from each candidate and that re-scrutiny fees are non-refundable.
