The Institute for Educational Evaluation (Icfes) has announced the dates for releasing results of the Saber 11th-grade exams in 2026, marking a crucial milestone for thousands of Colombian students seeking entry into higher education. According to the official calendar released by the Icfes, the results for the Saber 11th-grade tests under Calendar A will be available starting September 25, 2026. Students who took the PreSaber or the Validation of High School Diploma exams will have access to their results beginning October 2, 2026. These dates are essential for candidates aiming to understand their academic standing and future opportunities. The exams, which take place on July 26, 2026, are among the most significant academic processes for Colombian students. Over 650,000 individuals are scheduled to participate in the tests, including more than 603,000 students taking the main Saber 11th-grade examination, approximately 50,000 participants in the PreSaber test, and around 3,000 adults seeking to obtain their high school diploma through the Academic High School Validation process. The tests will be conducted in over 1,770 locations spread across 570 municipalities nationwide. The testing day, held on July 26, will begin at 7:00 a.m., with some adjustments made for participants in Bogotá due to mobility issues caused by the Bogotá Half Marathon. In Bogotá, candidates must arrive at 6:55 a.m. to ensure they are ready for the exam. The Icfes has ensured logistical support for all participants, emphasizing the importance of these assessments in evaluating student performance and guiding educational pathways. The exams cover key competencies such as mathematics, critical reading, natural sciences, social and civic studies, and English. Additionally, the tests include supplementary questionnaires related to socioeconomic factors and the school climate. The scores obtained serve as a vital tool for students aspiring to enter higher education programs, influencing university admissions and other academic opportunities. To access the results, students will need to visit the Icfes official website and navigate to the results section. They will be required to select the appropriate option for Saber 11th-grade exams, enter their document type and number used during registration, and download their individual reports. The Icfes recommends consulting results exclusively through its official channels and retaining the downloaded reports for future academic procedures. The Icfes has also implemented measures to accommodate participants with disabilities, ensuring accessibility for approximately 15,000 individuals. Furthermore, the organization has noted that nearly 14,900 participants are foreign citizens, predominantly from Venezuela. Participants are reminded to bring valid identification and necessary materials such as pencils, erasers, and sharpeners. Electronic devices, including mobile phones, are strictly prohibited during the exam, and any attempt at cheating could result in disqualification. These evaluations continue to play a pivotal role in shaping educational outcomes and opportunities for Colombian students, reinforcing the importance of standardized testing in assessing academic readiness and guiding future educational decisions.
