TMUA results: when they come out and what they show
UAT-UK releases TMUA results through your UAT-UK account roughly four weeks after your test, and sends them to the universities named in your UCAS application. This guide sets out what UAT-UK says about timing, format and what happens next.

When results are released
UAT-UK says TMUA results are released approximately four weeks after the test sitting. Its key dates page gives exact release dates for 2027 entry.
- October 2026 sitting (test window 12 to 16 October 2026): results released via your UAT-UK account on Monday 16 November 2026, mid-afternoon GMT.
- January 2027 sitting (test window 4 to 8 January 2027): results released on 8 February 2027, mid-afternoon GMT.
Check the dates before you plan around them
Dates are published per admission cycle and can change, so confirm them on the official key dates page. We keep a summary on our <a href="/tmua/dates/">dates page</a>, but UAT-UK is the authority.
How you see your result
Your result appears on your UAT-UK dashboard when you log in to your account. UAT-UK also links Explanation of Results documents from its test results page, which describe how scores are produced. Read the current one rather than relying on forum summaries.
What the score shows
Because there is no pass mark, there is no single number that counts as safe. Our <a href="/tmua/score-explainer/">score explainer</a> covers how to read a score without over-reading it.
- The TMUA gives a single overall score.
- Scores run from 1 (low) to 9 (high) and are recorded to one decimal place.
- UAT-UK says this scale lets scores from different test versions and sittings be compared on one scale.
- UAT-UK does not provide grade boundaries or a pass mark.
- Universities typically use the result alongside other parts of your UCAS application.
Who receives your result
Results go automatically to the participating institutions named in your UCAS application, shortly after the test. The matching is made course by course: your score is only visible to an institution if the course you apply to requires the test. You cannot choose which institutions see it.
UAT-UK advises adding your UCAS Personal ID to your UAT-UK profile before you submit your UCAS application, so your result can be matched to it.
If the result is not what you hoped
UAT-UK states that it does not accept appeals of test scores. Its test day rules also say you may sit each UAT-UK test only once per admission cycle, and booking a second time, including under another account, counts as misconduct. If you are worried, read each university's course page on how it uses the test, and contact the admissions team rather than guessing.
What to do while you wait
Results arrive weeks after the test, so there is little to gain from replaying questions. Use the time on your personal statement and the other parts of your application, and if you are sitting the January test, keep practising with timed papers.
