Undergraduate admissions and access
- Oxford is very competitive: over 17,400 people applied for around 3,500 undergraduate places for entry in 2014.
- That means that Oxford receives, on average, around five applications for each available place.
- 98% of those taking A-levels who enter the University achieve grades of AAA or better.
- The majority of Oxford’s UK undergraduates come from state schools. Latest figures (entry 2012) show that, for UK students attending schools or colleges in the UK, 57.5% of places on undergraduate courses went to applicants from the state sector, and 42.5% went to applicants from the independent sector.
- The University conducts more than 24,000 interviews for over 11,000 applicants over the two-week interview period in December.
- Oxford spends over £3 million each year on outreach activities, in addition tothe more than £8 million it spends on bursaries.
- Oxford, through its outreach work, reaches 78% of UK schools with post-16 provision – virtually all schools that field candidates capable of making a competitive application to Oxford.
- Oxford holds nearly 2,200 outreach activities annually with groups from primary age upwards, including summer schools, school visits, student shadowing schemes, e-mentoring, aspiration days and events for teachers.
- Oxford’s flagship access programme is the UNIQ summer school. 197 of the 2012 UNIQ cohort went on to win an Oxford place, meaning that over a quarter (26.3%) of all attendees will go on to study here. Of those UNIQ students who put in applications, over 40% ended up with places – against an overall success rate for Oxford applicants of around 20%.
- By 2014 UNIQ will be the largest free university summer school in the UK, with 1,000 places available.
