Le date ufficiali 2026 disponibili riguardano il ciclo ESAT per 2027 entry (sitting di ottobre 2026 e gennaio 2027). Non risultano, nelle fonti ufficiali consultate, date 2026 di ricorsi, graduatorie o immatricolazioni specifiche del test ESAT, perché tali fasi dipendono dalle singole università e non da UAT-UK. La sessione suppletiva/seconda sessione ufficiale collegata al ciclo 2026 è a gennaio 2027: Test Window 2 dal 04-01-2027 al 08-01-2027 con pubblicazione risultati il 08-02-2027. Per Cambridge, il sito ufficiale UAT-UK specifica che i candidati devono sostenere il test nella sessione di ottobre.
