UCAT format and modules

UCAT format, modules, timing, and ownership, with unsupported details left unasserted rather than filled from memory.

Sources last checked 2026-08-11

Check the exact course before booking.

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

Papers or modules

  • Current UCAT papers or modules are not reproduced without a test-owner format source

How to use this record

  • Use the live test-owner specification before choosing preparation material.
  • The institution record establishes only the scoped course requirement; it is not a general format source.

Course records that control the test choice

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

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.

  1. UCAT 2026 test dates

    UCAT Consortium · checked 2026-08-11 · next review 2026-09-01

    Use for the named 2026 UCAT cycle and current UCAT naming. It does not establish the test format or a course requirement; course requirements still need the institution's page.

  2. Admissions tests

    University of Oxford · checked 2026-08-11 · next review 2026-09-01

    Use only for Oxford entry-year and course requirements. It must not be generalized to other universities or courses.

  3. Tests, tasks and interviews

    University College London · checked 2026-08-11 · next review 2026-09-01

    Use only for UCL courses and the entry cycle stated by UCL. It must not be generalized to other institutions.
