2025 MCAT Test Dates
2025 MCAT Test Dates & Score Release Schedule
If you are planning to take the MCAT in 2025, it is essential to know your test date options, registration deadlines, and when you will receive your scores. This guide breaks it down for you in a clear and helpful way so you can plan confidently and avoid unnecessary fees.
How MCAT Scheduling Works
For every MCAT test date, there are three key deadlines:
- 60 Days Before the Test – Last day to cancel for a partial refund
- 30 Days Before the Test – Last day to reschedule for a reduced fee
- 10 Days Before the Test – Final deadline to register, cancel, reschedule, or update your personal info
No changes can be made within 10 days of your test date.
Scores are released about 30 to 35 days later, by 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time.
