Results and next steps
What should I do after my ICAG results are released?
First save the result and check every mark or status against your own record. Your next step then depends on whether you have passed, still have papers to complete, need ICAG to resolve a query or have finished the examinations and are preparing for membership.
For an ICAG CA Professional student deciding what to do after an examination result appears on ICAG's official portal.
Source checked on . Confirm your record and the arrangements for your intended sitting before applying, booking or paying.
Choose the next step that fits your result
Start with the result itself. Confirm the paper, sitting, mark and any code shown. A mark of 50 or more passes under the syllabus. The portal publishes A for absent, NT for not taken, E for exemption and P for previous pass. If anything looks wrong or incomplete, save a copy before you contact ICAG.
If one or more papers remain, update your study plan from the papers that are still outstanding. Check the syllabus progression sequence and the standing examination-entry permissions before choosing a cross-level combination. The standing permissions for exactly one outstanding lower-level paper apply across sittings unless ICAG changes them; use the sitting notice for dates, fees and registration arrangements.
If you have completed the examinations, turn to the experience and admission requirements. Passing the final paper does not automatically admit you as a member. Review your practical-experience record against the syllabus and ask Member Services for the current admission steps and supporting evidence.
The notice for a sitting may also give you a short option after results. For November 2026, for example, ICAG allows a request to view a marked script within one month after results are released, at GH¢1,100 per script. Treat that as an arrangement for that sitting, not a permanent rule for every result release.
Your next step depends on your result, the papers you have left, your exemptions, your practical experience and the rules for the next sitting.
Your post-results check
- Save the complete result and compare it with the papers you entered.
- Resolve a missing result, unfamiliar code or record difference directly with ICAG.
- If papers remain, plan from the outstanding papers and the notice for the next sitting.
- If the examinations are complete, review your practical-experience and membership evidence.
- Use any script-view or similar option within the period set for that particular sitting.
