For 2020 entry, applicants were categorised into UK/EU and International, with EU applicants considered alongside UK applicants. This means that a number of the UK applicants above were resident in the EU, and would now be considered as International.

*Due to the implications of the COVID-19 pandemic and impact on achieved A level grades, additional places were made available by the Department for Education and Department of Health and Social Care for 2020 entry only.

**Following Government guidelines for the 20/21 admissions cycle, applicants who missed their A Level grades at confirmation in August 2021 had their offer to study with us reinstated.

An applicant's fee status is not confirmed until the point of interview, and so this likely shows an over-representation of International applicants.

This was a new programme introduced in 2021. As such, we do not have any data relating to 2020 entry for this course.

Eligible applicants refers to UK applicants who are school leavers, i.e. had not taken any resits or begun degree study elsewhere.

Applicants placed from the reserve list includes a number of applicants to A100 who were made alternative offers on results day based on their achieved grades.
