These statistical releases describe applicants and applications from the 2015 UCAS cycle at the 24 March deadline. The 24 March deadline is applicable to some art and design courses.
The release is in the same format as at the January deadline for the 2015 cycle – seven reports covering different characteristics of applicants (including domicile, age, sex) and provision type (including country of provider and subject). As in previous cycles, the primary set of statistics covers all applications in the UCAS Undergraduate scheme.
For this cycle we have introduced a parallel set of context statistics that exclude, from all cycles, applications to teacher training courses (detailed subject group X1) at providers in Scotland. This is because a large set of teacher training courses in Scotland are being recruited through the UCAS Undergraduate scheme for the first time in 2015, having previously been recruited through UCAS Teacher Training.
The primary set of statistics describes the full set of applications in the UCAS scheme. The context set of statistics gives a better ‘like for like’ comparison of 2015 to earlier cycles, particularly when looking at applicants from Scotland, providers in Scotland, or the Education subject group.
The primary set of statistics are in this set of reports:
Summary statistics of applicants - March 2015- Analysis of applicants by domicile - March 2015
- Analysis of applicants by sex and age - March 2015
- Analysis of applicants by reapplication status - March 2015
- Analysis of applicants by applications - March 2015
- Analysis of applications by type and country of provider - March 2015
- Analysis of applications by subject group and applicant domicile - March 2015
The context set of statistics, with exactly the same format, are in this set of reports:
- Summary statistics of applicants (excluding X1 applications to Scotland) - March 2015
- Analysis of applicants by domicile (excluding X1 applications to Scotland) - March 2015
- Analysis of applicants by sex and age (excluding X1 applications to Scotland) - March 2015
- Analysis of applicants by reapplication status (excluding X1 applications to Scotland) - March 2015
- Analysis of applicants by applications (choices) made and domicile (excluding X1 applications to Scotland) - March 2015
- Analysis of applications by type and country of provider (excluding X1 applications to Scotland) - March 2015
- Analysis of applications by subject group and applicant domicile (excluding X1 applications to Scotland) - March 2015
