Careers and Senior Pathways
Students who are planning to apply to Medicine, Dentistry and Clinical Science degree programmes commencing in 2023 at these universities in Australia and New Zealand must sit the UCAT ANZ 2022 (between 1 July and 12 August 2022). The UCAT ANZ is a two hour, computer-based, multiple choice test. Candidates sit the test at Pearson VUE test centres located in Australia, New Zealand and at many overseas locations. For information about where test centres are offered, see Test Centre Locations.
Eligibility
The UCAT ANZ test is only available to a candidate whose educational level at the time of sitting the test is that they are undertaking or have completed the final year of secondary schooling, or higher.
For example, candidates registering for UCAT ANZ 2022 should have completed, or plan to complete their final year of secondary schooling in 2022, that is, Year 12 in Australia or Year 13 in New Zealand.
Students in Australian Year 11 or lower are NOT eligible to sit the UCAT ANZ. This includes Year 11 students undertaking one or more Year 12 subjects. Year 12 students completing Year 12 over two years are only eligible to sit the UCAT ANZ in their final year.
Some UCAT ANZ Consortium universities require international students to sit UCAT ANZ. Candidates are advised to check the university websites for further information.
Where do students book? Bookings are open at the UCAT ANZ website and will close on 17 May 2022 at 11:59pm AEST (Australian Eastern Standard Time). Late registrations are accepted until 31 May 2022 at 11:59pm AEST and incur an additional late fee. No bookings are accepted after the late booking deadline.
