Registration
STAT is conducted across multiple test windows each year.
All STAT sessions (excluding metro Perth test takers) are conducted online via remote proctoring. You'll need a private room at home and your own computer with a microphone and webcam. If you're not able to meet these requirements or have any questions about remote proctoring, please email stat@acer.org so we can assist you, if possible.

Common questions

-
ACER does not impose any restrictions on who can sit STAT.
Universities may impose their own restrictions on who they will accept STAT results from. Test takers should check with the university directly to determine if their STAT results will be accepted.

Payment and refunds
The standard registration fee for STAT Multiple Choice is A$240 and STAT Written English A$225.
Reasonable adjustments
If you have a disability, other health-related or educational need which might interfere with your ability to sit the test in the standard manner, you should apply for reasonable adjustments as soon as possible after you complete your registration.
This includes if you require:
- access to food
- medication
- medical equipment or other devices during testing time
- rest breaks
If you are unsure, we recommend you submit an application. All requests are assessed on a case-by-case basis and all reasonable efforts will be made to provide you with support and appropriate testing conditions for your needs.
