Looking for dates and costs for 2021?

The dates and costs for TMUA 2021 will be available soon. Please check back for updates.

Can’t afford the TMUA registration fee?

Institutions using TMUA want to make sure that the registration fee is not a barrier to access or widening participation. In some cases, we can reimburse TMUA's fee based on ability to pay. You will need to pay your test centre your registration fee, which will be reimbursed to you if you are eligible for reimbursement. Late registration fees and administration fees cannot be reimbursed.

How can I get my fee reimbursed?

To apply for a reimbursement you need to complete the TMUA reimbursement application form. The reimbursement application deadline is 15 October 2021.

Our reimbursements apply only to UK/EU candidates. You will be required to upload ONE supporting document from the list below:
