UCAS Reports

Over the past four years, UCAS has released these high-impact reports that shone a light on pertinent issues in education and skills.

UCAS Streetview

We’ve been out and about asking students how they’re feeling about the big day and grilling those who’ve been there for their top advice. Our experts explain how Clearing really works, what to do if you change your mind and how to prepare for uni life.

UCAS Tariff

The UCAS Tariff is a means of allocating points to post-16 qualifications, based on a simple mathematical model which uses a qualification size and grading scale to generate a total number of points.

UCAS timetable of data and analysis

We publish a wide range of undergraduate, conservatoire, and teacher training statistics and analysis reports throughout the year, for use across the education sector and beyond.

UCAS Undergraduate entry requirements

Each course, and most universities and colleges, have different requirements – usually a mix of qualifications, subjects, or exam grades. Learn more about them here.

Universities and colleges

Reach your future students and recruitment goals. Connect with the right audience through data insights and precisely targeted campaigns. We understand who students are, what’s driving their application decisions and how you can find the ones who'll most likely enjoy your courses. No other organisation can offer you that.
