National Multi-Subject Test 2026
Starting in 2026, participants of the National Multi-Subject Test (NMT) will receive preliminary results immediately upon leaving the examination room. Official scores for the main session will be posted in personal accounts by July 3, while those taking the test during additional sessions from July 17 to July 24 will have their results available by July 29. The main session of NMT-2026 began on May 20 and runs through June 25. This year, more than 355,000 individuals have registered for the main session, representing an increase of 43,000 compared to last year. This standardized test is a key requirement for university admissions in Ukraine, assessing proficiency in multiple subjects.
Requirements and Opportunities for Applicants
Admission scores are calculated on a scale from 100 to 200 points. For most subjects, the minimum threshold is at least 15% of the maximum possible test score. However, for Ukrainian language and history of Ukraine, the minimum is set at 15% plus one additional test point. Conversion tables for translating raw test scores into the 100–200 scale have been pre-approved by the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine. During the admissions process, each subject score is multiplied by a weight coefficient depending on the chosen field of study.
- The Ukrainian Center for Educational Quality Assessment (UCEQA) recommends using the NMT-2026 competitive score calculator for precise calculations.
- Applicants planning to apply to foreign universities can request an official extract of their NMT results.
- This extract is a paper document signed by the UCEQA director and stamped with the institution's seal.
- It is provided free of charge and processed within five business days.
- The original extract can be sent by mail within Ukraine or collected in person in Kyiv.
Overall, this year's NMT-2026 promises to be convenient and transparent for participants, offering quick access to results and tools for calculating admission chances to higher education institutions.
Introducing preliminary results immediately after testing could significantly reduce stress for participants, as they will be able to assess their chances of successful admission more quickly.
With the increase in registered participants, competition in the educational market is growing, which may encourage young people to prepare more and strive for self-improvement. The availability of official result extracts for international use also highlights the globalization of education and the readiness of Ukrainian applicants to study abroad.
As the number of participants continues to rise, the importance of the National Multi-Subject Test becomes increasingly evident. This year, a record number of students have registered, reflecting a growing competition for university places.
