These are the key dates and deadline for the 2026 test cycle. We do not make exceptions to our deadlines.
It is your responsibility to book and sit your test within the testing window. We strongly advise candidates to test as early as possible.
If you choose to book a late test date and then encounter illness or other issues which prevent you from attending your test appointment you may not be able to reschedule within the testing window.
You may only test once in any test cycle. Instances of multiple testing in the same test cycle will be treated as misconduct and all results will be withdrawn.
Registration for the UCAT is a two-step process of creating an account and booking a test.

Consortium Universities expect international applicants to take the test, which could mean travelling to another country.
If travel to a test centre is difficult because of distance, pandemic, war, civil unrest or natural disaster, please refer to our OnVUE online proctored testing information before booking your test.
Our ‘fit to test’ policy means if a candidate attends their test they are declaring themselves fit to take the test.
If you are concerned that illness, injury or personal circumstances means you will not be ‘fit to test’, please refer to the Fit to Test Policy for advice.

Notes
Applicants not applying to Cambridge or Oxford are strongly advised to meet the January deadlines if possible. Under UCAS rules universities are permitted but not required to consider late applications. If you are thinking of making a late application, please check with the universities concerned to make sure they are still considering applications. More detail on the UCAS website.
You will need to enter your UCAS Personal Identifier number on your LNAT profile before you submit your UCAS application. You do not need to complete your UCAS application form when you register your LNAT profile.
Don’t forget to think about how you are going to pay the test fee before you try to book a test slot. Payment is required at time of booking – no exceptions. The only possible modes of payment are major credit card (Visa, MC, Amex), debit card (Visa and MasterCard only), or LNAT e-voucher.
Think ahead! More about payment and costs.
You may only sit the LNAT once between 1 September 2026 and 31 July 2027. If you sit it twice during that period, the later sitting of the two will automatically be invalidated and the later result will be void.
If you decide to re-apply to LNAT-participating universities in a later UCAS year, you must sit the LNAT again in that later UCAS year.
LNAT results cannot be carried forward from one academic year to the next
