Free admissions tool

Course and test requirement finder

Filter the recorded institution, course, and entry-year rows to see which admissions test each row names, and which official source establishes it.

Sources last checked 2026-08-14

Check the exact course before booking.

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

How this tool works

Method version uk-admissions-tools-v1. The tool runs on the server from the values in the page address, works without JavaScript, and keeps nothing you type.

What it calculates

Your institution, test, entry-year, and course words filter the recorded rows; nothing is inferred for a row that is not in the registry.
A course word matches when it appears in the course scope a university published for that row.
Every row shown links the official source it came from and the date that source was last checked.

What it will not do

An empty result means this registry holds no matching row, not that no test is required.
A row applies only to the institution, named course scope, and entry year printed on it.
This tool never states whether an application will succeed and never predicts a score.
Keiko Study is not affiliated with, and is not endorsed by, any test owner or university named here.

Official sources

Each link goes to the official test owner, institution, or official report. A test-owner page does not establish a university course requirement; that requires an institution source.
