Registrations for HPAT-Ireland 2011 will open on 3 November 2010, and must be submitted online by 17:15 GMT on Thursday 20 January 2011.  To be eligible to sit HPAT-Ireland, applicants must either be in their final year of school or have completed their Leaving Certificate prior to 2011.

Registration for HPAT-Ireland is available online via this website only.  The registration fee of the HPAT–Ireland test in 2011 is €95.00 (all taxes and charges included) per candidate. This fee will cover online registration for the test, materials required for the paper test, provision of test results to the candidate and the transfer of results to the CAO.  All payments must be made in EURO.  The preferred method of payment is by credit card.

HPAT-Ireland will be offered in Cork, Dublin, Galway, Sligo and Waterford.

Please Note: Every effort will be made to accommodate applicants at their preferred test centre. However, as capacity in some test centres may be limited, places in those venues will be allocated on a first-come basis. It is important that applicants register early to ensure that they are able to get their choice of test location.

If you have a visual, hearing, physical or other impairment which means the standard manner in which the test is set up requires change, e.g. alternative format or additional rest breaks, you should submit a detailed statement to this effect to the HPAT-Ireland Office at ACER (fax:+61 3 9277 5757 or email This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
