When will my dMAT September 2026 certificate be available?

Quick Answer verified

If you sat the dMAT on 26 September 2026, your certificate became available on 12 October 2026, about sixteen days later. This was the earliest date you could attach a completed dMAT result to a university application, so plan submission deadlines around the certificate release date, not the exam date itself.

Once you finish the dMAT, the wait for your certificate is short but fixed, so you should plan around it rather than assume you can submit results immediately. For the 26 September 2026 sitting, certificates were released on 12 October 2026.

Using Your Certificate

  • The certificate is issued by g.a.s.t. and has no expiry date on their side.

  • A September 2026 result is valid for Winter Semester 2027 applications and beyond, though individual universities may set their own recency rules.

  • Build any application deadline around your certificate date (12 October 2026 for the first cycle), since that is the date you can actually produce the document, not the exam date.

My Advice

If a university deadline falls close to your certificate release date, such as the reported results dates of 8 February 2027 or 5 April 2027, contact their admissions office and ask whether a proof of having sat the exam is accepted provisionally. Some programmes will hold a place if they know your certificate is only days away.
