Late entries are those which are made after the amendment deadline, and very late entries are those which are made after the late entry deadline. Additional fees are charged for any entries made after each of these deadlines have passed.
Our entry fees (including late and very late fees) are published in our fees document.

Preliminary entries provide us with an estimate of the number of candidates that centres intend to enter for a unit or qualification. They are mandatory for the June series and are collected from centres in the Autumn term via the secure website. They are used for the calculation and despatch of examination material (e.g. answer books, early question papers, NEA tasks etc.) and to ensure that centres are in receipt of correspondence relating to relevant subjects.
You can submit preliminary entries by logging on to the secure website and selecting 'Make preliminary entries' from the 'Entries' tab.
Please ensure that preliminary entries are submitted by the 10th October deadline.
Basedata is required by any centre wishing to make entries using EDI (Electronic Data Interchange). It is imported into a centre's Management Information System (MIS) and contains all the necessary information for the various subjects that WJEC Eduqas offer, providing details of how each subject breaks down into its constituent parts, e.g. options, components, papers, maximum marks, exam dates, fees, etc.

It is essential that for each examination level and series, centres use the latest version of basedata available.
Each candidate must be issued with a UCI. This thirteen-digit number forms part of the candidate entry. Centres must always keep a candidate's original UCI and not create a new one if they move centres, but it is particularly important for unitised specifications and if carrying forward NEA marks.
Further information regarding UCIs is available on the JCQ website.
A tool for creating UCI's is available here>
