Frequently asked questions

Who can use the Results Verification Service?

The online Results Verification Service is for:

  • universities
  • colleges
  • employers
  • other organisations that accept our exams.

It allows people to check Cambridge English exam results quickly, accurately and securely.

Organisations wishing to check an IELTS result should use the IELTS Results Service.

People who have taken our exams should not use it to check their results. Candidates can check their results online using the Online Results Service.

How do I access the Results Verification Service?

Go to the Results Verification Service website and enter your username and password to log in.

I need to check the result of an applicant, but my choice of password is not accepted when I try to register

Your password must be at least eight characters in length, and contain at least three of the four following types of character: lower case letters, upper case letters, numbers, special characters.

How can candidates share their results with our organisation?

The service offers two ways for a candidate to share their results with you:

  • Candidates can share their results online through the service by logging into the Candidate Results website and choosing to share them with your institution. New candidates will then appear in bold when you log into the service.

  • Candidates not using the Candidate Results website can directly provide you with their Verification number and Date of Birth to enable verification. Select the ‘Candidate Search’ tab and enter the candidate details to view their results information.

    After locating your chosen candidate, you can click through to view their result details, including their overall score and component scores. You will also be able to see their test day photo if they have taken B2 First, C1 Advanced or C2 Proficiency.

I cannot view the Statement of Results pdf

  1. Make sure you have the latest version of Adobe Reader installed. You can download it here.
  2. Make sure you have turned off the pop-up blocker, or configured it to allow pop-ups from the Results Verification Service site. The option to do this may be found in the ‘Tools’ menu of most browsers.

I am not able to check a candidate’s results using the online Results Verification Service

Not all results can be checked using this website. For example, you will not be able to verify:

  • exams taken before 2005
  • teaching qualifications (except Delta Module One).

It may still be possible for institutions to verify a result which is not within this system. They should use our verification request form.

Already accepting our exams?

Let us know so we can add your institution to our global online recognition database, which is accessible to the millions of people who visit our website every year.
