STEP dates for UK admissions

STEP registration and sitting date sources for 2027 entry, with separate checks for institution and course deadlines.

Check the exact course before booking.

The test owner controls the test; the institution controls whether your course requires it and by when.

Dates for 2027 entry

Dates can change by cycle. Follow the live official pages named below, then check the exact institution deadline rather than copying a date from another course.

  • Use OCR's live key-dates page for the applicable examination cycle.
  • Use the institution course page or offer for the required paper and grade condition.

Course records that control the deadline

Read the institution, exact course scope, and entry year together. A row is not a rule for a different course or university.

No institution requirement is asserted here.

The official records available in this repository cover the test owner, dates, or format, but do not include an institution course source for this test. Check the exact course page before booking or preparing.
