1、ANNUAL ADMISSIONS STATISTICAL REPORTMay 2022UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD ANNUAL ADMISSIONS STATISTICAL REPORT|2022ForewordThis year Oxford has continued to maintain its position as the top ranked University in the world in the Times Higher Education Global Ranking.Partly as a consequence,competition for pla

2、ces remains intense.Applications have risen by 22%in the past five years.In this,our fifth Annual Admissions Report,we provide details of the success rate of UK undergraduate applicants by education,region,race and socio-economic background,as well as by course and college.We do so in an effort to t

3、rack our progress and to be transparent about our practices.Almost 3,300 undergraduates were admitted in 2021,a return to the norm of previous years after the anomalies of 2020 when,due to the exceptional arrangements for awarding qualifications in response to the pandemic,a much larger cohort was a

4、dmitted.Most of those admitted in 2021 also suffered severe disruption to their education and are to be congratulated for doing so well in difficult circumstances.The data that follows illustrates that over the past five years the proportion of students from state schools rose from 58%to 68%.Those i

5、dentifying as Black and Minority Ethnic rose from 18%to 25%.Those from the most socio-economically disadvantaged areas rose from 11%to 17%and those from areas with low progression to higher education rose from 13%to 17%.Those declaring a disability rose from 8%to 12%and the proportion of women rose

6、from 50%to 55%.We have set ourselves a target that by 2023 25%of the British students we admit will be from deprived backgrounds.In the past four years that number has risen from 13%to 21%.The changing profile of our undergraduate student body is the result of hard work and dedication by a wide rang

7、e of people;the students who work hard and the parents and teachers who support them,the admissions teams across the university who treat every single application with personal attention,those who run our outreach and access programs,and the generous donors who support our work.We have extended the

8、reach of our flagship UNIQ programme by transferring it online and we have grown our bridging program,Opportunity Oxford,from 116 offers in 2020 to 231 offers in 2022.This year we will launch the Astrophoria Foundation Year,a new university wide foundation year for those with high potential whose ed

9、ucation has been severely disrupted.On a less positive note,these pages also reveal the steep decline in students from the EU.This decline was expected as a result of the changing fee regime occasioned by Brexit but it is stark.The numbers admitted from the EU had dropped in half,from 8%to 4%and fro

10、m an average of over 260 for the past four years,to 128 this year.The number of British students has increased slightly to 82%,as compared to a Russell group average of 73%.We have made significant progress over the past five years in ensuring that the brightest,most academically driven pupils in th

13、presents undergraduate admissions statistics for the University of Oxford over five admissions years between 2017 and 2021,broken down into chapters covering the following areas:overall numbers,domicile,nation and region,disadvantage,school type,gender,ethnicity and disability.The report includes in

14、formation for Oxfords colleges and largest courses,aggregated for the three admissions years 2019 to 2021.Aggregation has been used as small yearly figures are likely to provide a misleading picture.Nonetheless,some figures remain so small that a handful of decisions can appear to create large swing

15、s which have limited statistical value.This health warning applies even more strongly to single-year statistics for colleges and courses.The full data are available to view online:ox.ac.uk/adstats.The report also provides some national context for Oxfords data,primarily based on figures from the Hig

16、her Education Statistics Agency(HESA).This includes information on the numbers of students achieving Oxfords minimum standard offer:three A grades or better at A-level and equivalent Scottish qualifications.It also compares Oxfords data with the higher education sector as a whole and with the Russel

17、l Group of leading universities.A summary of Oxfords admissions process can be found on page 38.Key points The number of students admitted in 2021 was back to the usual level,at 3,298.Over four fifths of those places(2,691)went to students living in the UK.The intake in 2020 was higher than normal f

210、of socio-economic advantage.ACORN uses a range of data such as accommodation type,household income,population density and lifestyle habits to produce estimates of the characteristics of each individual household and postcode.Category 4 is described as financially stretched;category 5 as urban advers

211、ity.Both groups are characterised by lower-than-average household incomes.ACORN categories 4 and 5 represent 13.2%of UK students achieving three A grades or better at A-level at UK universities*.AdmittedStudents admitted refers to students who have been made an offer of a place at Oxford,met any con

212、ditions of that offer,and indicated that they intend to take up their place.ApplicationsApplications refers to students who submit a UCAS application by the 15 October deadline for an undergraduate course at Oxford.Applications by collegeIn tables that feature application numbers by college,the figu

213、res include those applicants who indicated a college of preference on their application,and anyone who made an open application who was then allocated to that college.Applicants considered by one college may still receive an offer from another college.CollegesOxford University is made up of over 30

214、colleges and halls.It is these colleges that admit undergraduate students to the University.All colleges have signed up to a Common Framework for Admissions which means the same application process for each course at every college.The colleges work together during the admissions process to ensure th

215、at the best applicants are successful,regardless of the college that initially considers their application.Most colleges offer most courses but the exact mix and the number of places on each course does vary between colleges.For more information about colleges,please see ox.ac.uk/ugcolls.CoursesCour

219、ation about the support available to disabled students,please see ox.ac.uk/disability.DisadvantageOxford uses various measures of disadvantage when considering applications,from various sources of available data.The main measures are:Educational disadvantage,which looks at the average performance of

220、 schools at GCSE and A-level.Socio-economic disadvantage,which looks at ACORN and POLAR data for the applicants home postcode.Oxford is also aware of students who have been in care,based on information provided in the UCAS application.For more information,please see ox.ac.uk/context.DomicileA studen

221、ts domicile refers to their country of permanent residence,as provided on their UCAS application.This is not necessarily their nationality,but it is the country where they usually live.For example,UK-domiciled students includes students with non-British nationality who are permanently resident in th

222、e UK(not just here for the purposes of education).It does not include UK students who live permanently outside the UK.EthnicityEthnicity refers to the ethnic origin of UK students,as declared on the UCAS application.Our data includes only those applicants who have indicated their ethnicity,so it doe

223、s not include those who choose not to say(4.7%of applicants in the three years 2019-2021).Ethnicity data is not available to universities during the admissions process:UCAS shares this data after all the admissions decisions have been made.Gender This report uses the binary female/male options from

224、the UCAS application,which may not reflect the gender identity of all applicants.The University welcomes students who wish to take,or have taken,steps to change the gender identity they were assigned at birth,and those who do not identify with a permanent binary gender identity.For more information,

225、please see https:/edu.admin.ox.ac.uk/transgender.OffersApplications to Oxford are all considered together,and then shortlisted applicants are invited to interview.Around a third of those who are interviewed are then made an offer of a place.Most offers have conditions attached,such as achieving a pa

226、rticular set of grades at A-level,as specified for an applicants chosen course.Offers in this report includes all those students who receive an offer.The number of offers for any particular college may be higher than their application numbers as students may be moved between colleges during the appl

227、ication process.This is to ensure that the best applicants are successful,regardless of the college that initially considers their application.PAGE 36UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD ANNUAL ADMISSIONS STATISTICAL REPORT|2022Open applicationApplicants can indicate a college of preference when they complete their

228、 UCAS application or they can make an open application.Open applicants are then allocated to a college.After this allocation,colleges review all their applications in exactly the same way:they make no distinction between direct and open applicants.POLARPOLAR is a postcode-based tool that measures ho

229、w likely young people are to participate in higher education based on where they live.POLAR quintiles are calculated by dividing the number of young people in local areas who enter higher education aged 18 or 19 by the overall young population in those areas.POLAR quintiles 1 and 2 represent 14.5%of

230、 UK students achieving three A grades or better at A-level at UK universities.The POLAR classification is continuously developed and updated.2020 and 2021 data in this report are from POLAR4.Previous years data are from POLAR3.School typeData on school type use the standard UCAS school type categori

235、See page 39 for full citation.PAGE 37UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD ANNUAL ADMISSIONS STATISTICAL REPORT|2022Guide to the Oxford admissions process Candidates apply to Oxford through UCAS.The Oxford deadline is 15 October.As part of their application,students can specify a college,but nearly a fifth of candid

236、ates make an open application.Open applications are automatically allocated to a college with a lower number of direct applicants for the course,ensuring that candidates are distributed as equally as possible.Typically,Oxford aims to interview three candidates for every place.Shortlisting for interv

237、iew is done to a centrally agreed set of criteria for each course and takes into account all the information from the UCAS form,including any factors that might provide context to past or predicted grades.During shortlisting,many courses reallocate candidates from one college to another.This ensures

238、 that the best candidates University-wide are selected for interview by an Oxford college,even if it is not the college to which they originally applied.Shortlisted candidates are interviewed in early December by the college to which they applied,or the one to which they were reallocated.Some course

239、s,for example Medicine,only consider college preferences once the shortlisted candidates have been chosen.Candidates interview performance adds to the information already gathered,and decisions are then made as to who should receive an offer.Again,this is discussed at course level to ensure the over

240、all best candidates are selected.As a result of open applications and reallocations,around a third of successful candidates get an offer from a college they didnt initially select.Offers go out to candidates in January.The number of offers exceeds the number of places available,to allow for candidat

241、es who decline their offer,withdraw,or fail to meet their offer conditions.Competition for places is high for all Oxford undergraduate courses,but some courses have many more applicants per available place than others.This is one reason why offer and admission rates vary noticeably between courses.S

242、uccess rates are also influenced by the fixed number of undergraduates admitted annually by each college,and by the courses offered at any given college.As some colleges receive far more direct applications than others,the reallocation process described above is used to move candidates between colle

243、ges and ensure fair chances regardless of where candidates originally applied.Further information on this process and how to apply is available at www.ox.ac.uk/study.PAGE 38UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD ANNUAL ADMISSIONS STATISTICAL REPORT|2022Note on HESA data DataThe data presented in Section 1(Overall num
