Exempt Candidates


If you live and are educated in a country not listed here then you do not need to take the test.

Please note that if you are receiving education in a country listed here then you are required to take the test.

If you think you are exempt from the test then you need to complete this form and return it to the UKCAT Administrator as indicated on the form.

The UKCAT Administrator will consider your application for exemption and if you meet the criteria will issue you (by email) with an exemption number. This means that you do not need to take the test. Your chosen medical or dental schools will consider your application without a test result. UKCAT will inform your chosen Universities that you are exempt from the test. You do not need to contact them directly.

Requests for exemption from UKCAT must reach the UKCAT Administrator by 27th September 2010. Any applications received after this date will not be considered.
