Please note

Your exam needs to have taken place by the second Friday in June in order to allow time for your results to be sent to UCAS. This means:

  • If you are taking a face to face exam, including an online exam taken by video conference, your exam date must be no later than the second Friday in June
  • If you are taking a music or drama Digital Grades & Diplomas exam you must have uploaded your files for assessment 3 weeks in advance of this deadline (ie mid to late May) to allow time for the examiner to mark your exam

If you have taken an assessment that attracts UCAS points we will automatically let UCAS know and there is no need to request this.

Referrals

Please note that the above timeframes do not include time for a referred exam to be dealt with.  Whilst we will always do our best to quickly resolve referrals where UCAS points are needed, this is not always possible and you should take care to avoid your exam being referred.
