Exam Access Requirements Form
On this form you tell us about your Examination Access Requirements, so that we can make suitable arrangements for you to sit the LNAT. You may have mobility impairments or vision impairments. Or you may have dyslexia or a similar condition. Anything for which you can provide appropriate clinical evidence, and which you think may affect the way we administer the LNAT in your case, should be notified to us as an examination access requirement.
Before filling in this form, please make sure you have read the FAQs.
* indicates required field.
Please note: you will need to register for the LNAT and obtain your LNAT ID before you book your test.
What examination access arrangements do you need us to make for you?
[Note: A maximum of 25% extra time is normally granted for dyslexia, dyspraxia, dysgraphia, dysorthographia, or working memory deficit.]
What provision is currently made for you in other public examinations (eg A Levels, GCSEs)?
[Note: We will normally match, but no more than match, your existing provision. Please include evidence of your existing provision, if any.]
Declaration: I declare that the information supplied on this form is true to the best of my
knowledge and belief and that the supporting documents attached, if any, have not been
tampered with or falsified in any way. I have also signed the confidentiality statement on
this form, and read the notes at the end of this form..
I have read and accept the declaration
If you are not attaching evidence now, please send it as soon as possible. We will not be
able to confirm what arrangements we can make for you until we see your evidence. If
you are not sure what to send, or your documentation is not yet available, contact the
LNAT Administrator for further advice.
Confidentiality and data protection statement: The information supplied on this form
(or otherwise supplied by you in connection with the meeting of your examination access
requirements) will be securely held and treated confidentially in accordance with the
Data Protection Act. LNAT Consortium Ltd will use this information solely for the purpose
of determining your access requirements to sit the LNAT, and, once agreed with you, to
implement those requirements in consultation with the LNAT operators, Pearson VUE,
who will also be bound by the same conditions as to confidentiality and data protection.
In order that your application to any LNAT university is dealt with fairly, the LNAT
Consortium may, in confidence, disclose details of your disability and the arrangements
made to accommodate it to those universities to which you have applied. Please indicate
below whether you consent to this disclosure. Tick the box to indicate you consent, leave unticked to indicate you do not consent:
I CONSENT to the disclosure of information obtained by the LNAT Consortium in
connection with my access requirements to sit the LNAT to those LNAT universities to
which I have applied. I understand that this information will be used only to ensure that
my application is dealt with fairly, and will be treated in confidence.
Important notes. In order to ensure that appropriate arrangements are made, you need to give us
as much notice of your requirements as possible. For example, it may take 3 weeks to arrange for
a reader recorder to be available, so please bear this in mind when considering your deadlines
and booking or rescheduling your test. Universities may at their own discretion grant an extension
to your deadline. If you are seeking an extension, you will need to contact those universities to
which you have applied. The LNAT Consortium cannot grant an extension of time on their behalf.
On receipt of your form the LNAT Administrator will contact you to discuss what arrangements
can be offered. The LNAT Consortium will make all reasonable efforts to meet your requirements.
However, if we are unable to do so, you can either (a) sit the LNAT and ask that the
circumstances be taken into account by Admissions Tutors when considering your LNAT score;
or (b) apply for exemption from the test. When the LNAT Consortium is satisfied that your
requirements cannot reasonably be met, it will recommend exemption to those universities to
which you have applied. However, the final decision as to whether or not to grant exemption rests
with the individual universities. The LNAT Consortium cannot agree to exemption on behalf of
these universities.
If you accept the arrangements offered, the LNAT Administrator will tell you how to contact the
test operator, Pearson VUE, to make your booking. This will involve your making a telephone call
to a UK telephone number where an agent will assist you in ensuring that your test booking
matches the arrangements agreed between you and the LNAT Consortium.
Once Pearson VUE have made your booking, this constitutes your acceptance of the arrangements offered and these will not be altered.
You cannot book a test with special access arrangements (eg extra time) on line. If you have made an on‐line booking you will need to
cancel that booking and reschedule your test by following the instructions you will be sent by the LNAT Administrator when your application has been processed.
Please note that cancellation conditions apply: tests can be rescheduled without charge at any time up to 12 noon (UK time) two working days before the existing
slot (working days are Mondays to Fridays excluding UK bank holidays). (For full instructions see http://www.lnat.ac.uk/registration/booking.aspx and Step 3 of
