UCAS takes pride in the quality, trustworthiness, and value of the analysis and statistics it publishes about higher education (HE). Adherence on a voluntary basis to the Code of Practice for Statistics allows us to evidence and demonstrate these aspects of our work.

Regardless of the subset of maths you love, demonstrating your motivation and enthusiasm for the subject is key to an impressive maths and statistics personal statement.

The massive surge in digital data in recent years means there’s lots for statisticians to get excited about. We speak to an admissions tutor to find out the best way to approach your personal statement.
