Report on UCAS Applications data for March 2018 deadline

UCAS publishes an analysis of all full-time UCAS Undergraduate applications made by the 24 March deadline – the application deadline for some higher education courses in art and design. Nationally, a ‘record proportion of English 18 year olds apply to higher education’, which is very good news for the sector at large. Nationally, our Q, R, and T group register a further drop on last year’s figures. However, when looking at gender and domicile breakdown, some positive news comes from both groups Q and T.
