UCAT ANZ Access Arrangements Application

The UCAT ANZ Access Arrangements application opened on 3 February 2020 and will close at 5pm AEST on 4 May 2020. Applications outside these dates are not accepted.

Applications will be processed in approximately 5 business days and you will be notified of the outcome by email. If you have not heard from our office within this time please email the UCAT ANZ Office and we will check on progress. Please do not submit multiple applications. 

All queries regarding Access Arrangements should be emailed to the UCAT ANZ Office, not Pearson VUE Customer Services.

Please give brief details of your learning difficulty, disability or medical condition.

Please tell us all the access arrangements you require to sit the UCAT. This should reflect what you are entitled to in public exams.

In order to assess the type of access arrangements you will need to sit the UCAT we will ask you to provide supporting evidence which may contain your personal information or that of a third party.  This evidence will be used by the UCAT ANZ Office for the purpose of assessing your needs.  We may also need to communicate details of your condition(s) to Pearson VUE in order to assess the arrangements that can be offered by their test centres and for them to make any agreed booking arrangements.  By providing this evidence you consent to this data being used for this purpose.  Where you have provided evidence that includes the data of any third party you confirm that you have obtained their consent.  Any data received in relation to making access arrangements will be retained for the duration of the relevant admissions cycle.
