The Health Professions Admission Test (HPAT-Ulster) is a professionally designed and marked selection test developed to assess aptitude for study in the Allied Health Professions.

The next sitting of the Health Professions Admission Test (HPAT-Ulster) will be held on Saturday, 29 January 2011. There is only one sitting each year.

The test is used in the selection process by the University of Ulster for entry into the following courses:

• BSc Hons Dietetics
• BSc Hons Occupational Therapy
• BSc Hons Physiotherapy
• BSc Hons Podiatry
• BSc Hons Radiography
• BSc Hons Speech & Language Therapy

Universities are increasingly moving to select students on the basis of a wider set of objective criteria rather than academic results alone.

HPAT-Ulster consists of three sections, with a total test time of 3 hours.
