Contextual admissions
For applicants from the UK, contextual information is used to gain a more complete picture of the educational and individual context of an applicant. This allows our admissions selectors to assess achievement and potential whilst recognising the challenges an applicant may have faced.
Applicants who have been flagged for the attention of the admissions selector will receive additional consideration which may include a lower contextual offer. Full details can be found on our programme pages.
