The University Clinical Aptitude Test (UCAT) is a mandatory admission test for students in dental or medicine courses in <a href=\"https:\/\/leverageedu.com\/study-locations\/study-in-uk\/\"><strong>top UK universities<\/strong><\/a>. If you are interested in taking the UCAT, you must learn about the dates and other important deadlines. This will allow you to apply on time and avoid any last-minute hassle. In this blog, we have covered everything you need to know about the UCAT dates: registration, exam cost, how to prepare for the exam, and how to cancel your exam if you want to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-ucat-dates-2025\"><span id=\"ucat-dates-2025\">UCAT Dates 2025<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The UCAT is conducted once a year. If you are applying to UK universities, you must register as soon as possible. The UCAT important dates are provided below for your reference. The dates provided are as per the UCAT official website. Keep in mind that the 2025 exam registration is for entry to the 2026 batch.\u00a0 The 2026 exam dates have not yet been disclosed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>S.No.<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Event<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Date<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>1<\/td><td>UCAT account creation, bursary &amp; access applications open<\/td><td>13 May (09:30 BST)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>2<\/td><td>Booking opens<\/td><td>17 June (06:00 BST)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>3<\/td><td>Testing starts<\/td><td>7 July<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>4<\/td><td>Access arrangement application deadline<\/td><td>16 September (noon BST)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>5<\/td><td>Booking deadline &amp; account creation close<\/td><td>19 September (noon BST)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>6<\/td><td>Final test date<\/td><td>26 September<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>7<\/td><td>Bursary application deadline<\/td><td>26 September (16:00 BST)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>8<\/td><td>UCAS deadline<\/td><td>15 October<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>9<\/td><td>Results sent to universities<\/td><td>Early November<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-many-times-is-ucat-conducted-in-a-year\"><span id=\"how-many-times-is-ucat-conducted-in-a-year\">How Many Times is UCAT Conducted in a Year?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The UCAT is conducted once a year. Moreover, you can only choose to apply to UCAT (for UK universities specifically) or UCAT ANZ (mainly for Australian and New Zealand university admission). You cannot sit for both exams in one academic year. The reason? The course content is very similar. If you want to enrol next year or in 2027 as deferred entry, you must register now.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-the-last-date-for-the-ucat-registration\"><span id=\"what-is-the-last-date-for-the-ucat-registration\">What is the Last Date for the UCAT Registration?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Last Date for UCAT registration is 19th September 2025. The registration process has already started, and the test booking dates are also open. If you register now, you can quickly book your test centre, pay the fees and register for the test. Account creation would not be permitted after noon of 19th September 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-are-the-ucat-dates-for-2027-entry\"><span id=\"what-are-the-ucat-dates-for-2027-entry\">What are the UCAT Dates for 2027 Entry?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you want to apply for the 2027 entry? Then, you must sit for the 2026 UCAT examination. Unfortunately, the next year\u2019s registration dates have not been announced. However, there is a pattern. Based on the same, we have made a table below. The table showcases the estimated UCAT dates for 2027 entry.

This is because late registration means you may not get the test centre you want. Therefore, you may have to travel some distance to take the test. This can be a hassle. Moreover, those requiring special arrangements will not get time for arrangement approval, and then a test booking. Know that it is your responsibility to apply on time. The test registration process is as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Create a UCAT account:<\/strong> The UCAT dates for registration are currently open. The first step you need to take is to create a UCAT account. Know that you can only have one UCAT account (even if you are a returning student). You need to provide photo identification and other details.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Log in to your account: <\/strong>Pearson VUE will send a confirmation email. A link will be provided; you can click on that to log in to your account and note down your CAT candidate ID.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Book your test: <\/strong>You can book your test. The UCAT dates for test bookings are open.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Pay your fees:<\/strong> Pay the UCAT registration fees and get a payment confirmation<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>At this stage, your registration is complete. Take a printout of the booking confirmation and payment confirmation email for future reference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-tips-to-prepare-for-the-ucat-from-previous-applicants-nbsp\"><span id=\"5-tips-to-prepare-for-the-ucat-from-previous-applicants\">5 Tips to Prepare for the UCAT from Previous Applicants&nbsp;<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To clear the UCAT examination, you must dedicate at least 2 to 3 months to preparation. UCAT is considered a difficult examination because it assesses your verbal reasoning, problem-solving abilities, quantitative reasoning, and more. Hence, preparing well for the exam is essential to clear it. Here are 5 expert tips from previous UCAS applicants that you may find valuable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Make use of the UCAT question banks and sample papers. Similar questions are asked in the main paper. Hence, it will be useful.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Identify your strengths and weaknesses and dedicate time to working on your weaknesses.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Use an on-screen calculator while preparing. You are allowed to use on-screen calculators during the UCAT. Hence, getting a habit of using calculators will help you use it during exams.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The UCAT official resources are enough to get an idea of how the paper is going to be. You do not have to pay for courses that are way too expensive.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Focus on one section at a time, and have a structured plan while preparing for UCAT.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-pale-ocean-gradient-background has-background\"><strong>Also Read: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/leverageedu.com\/learn\/tmua-preparation\/\"><strong>TMUA Preparation: 5 Proven Tips to Ace the UK Mathematics Entrance Exam&nbsp;<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-the-best-time-to-take-ucat\"><span id=\"what-is-the-best-time-to-take-ucat\">What is the Best Time to take UCAT?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The UCAT does not take place on one specific date. Instead, the testing window remains open Monday, July 7, 2025, until Friday, September 26, 2025. You can choose any of these UCAT dates for the exam. Choose a testing window that suits you between <em>July to September.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>&nbsp;<\/em>An applicant who scored in the 98th Percentile said that (as per the UCAT website) the best time to choose was in<em> early August. <\/em>This gives enough time to prepare for the test. As per most applicants, the best time to take the exam is around <em>late July to August<\/em>. There are many reasons for this. For example,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Summer breaks are between July and August. During this time, you can engage in uninterrupted study sessions. You will have to cope with schoolwork.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In case of any unforeseen circumstances, you have to reschedule your test. You can do so.

For example, requesting accommodation. Although the UCAT dates for cancellation and rescheduling are shown, it is not for those who have received special arrangements. The rescheduling and cancellation policy is as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>UCAT cancellation:<\/strong> You can cancel the UCAT exam 24 hours before the exam date. If you cancel within the given time, you will be given a refund. Otherwise, you won\u2019t receive a refund.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>UCAT Rescheduling: <\/strong>You need to give at least 24 hours&#8217; notice before you reschedule your paper. Rescheduling is subject to test date availability.\u00a0 Ensure that you get a confirmation email of the rescheduled date. Free rescheduling is possible.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>If the test booking window closes and you want to cancel or reschedule, you need to contact the customer service (Pearson VUE).
