A100 medicine application statistics

The request was successful.

Dear University of St Andrews,
I was wondering if you could help me with my hopefully relatively simple request.

I am compiling some application statistics in relation to your A100 medicine course over the last 3 years in relation to both domestic and international applicants. I have broken down my request for extra clarity. I would like to know the following:

In regards to your A100 undergraduate-entry Medicine course:

For UK/EU applicants applying for -2019- entry:
The number of applications
The number of applicants who were invited to interview
The number of offers made
The number of final acceptances.

For international (for fee-paying purposes) applicants for -2019- entry:
The number of applications
The number of applicants who were invited to interview
The number of offers made
The number of final acceptances.

For UK/EU applicants applying for -2018- entry:
The number of applications
The number of applicants who were invited to interview
The number of offers made
The number of final acceptances.

For international (for fee-paying purposes) applicants for -2018- entry:
The number of applications
The number of applicants who were invited to interview
The number of offers made
The number of final acceptances.

For UK/EU applicants applying for -2017- entry:
The number of applications

The number of final acceptances.

For international (for fee-paying purposes) applicants for -2017- entry:

If only partial data is available then I would be grateful for what you have.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Yours faithfully,

Dr Alec Maynard

Dear June/University of St Andrews,

Many thanks for your response to my FOI request - very useful.

I wish to clarify two points, which I think will unfortunately mean a request for more info:

1) You state that the cycle for 2019 entry is incomplete. Students will, of course, have started on the course almost 3 months ago now. When will you consider this cycle "complete" i.e. when will you have access to interview data?
2) By "final acceptances" I meant the number of people who actually enrolled onto the course as a result of the admissions process. From what you have stated I do not think those are the figures provided. I'd be grateful if you could provide that information.

So, please consider my new request under FOI legislation for:

For UK/EU applicants applying for -2019- entry:
The number of applicants invited to interview, if data available. If not available, the date on which it will be available
The number of final acceptances/enrolments.

For international (for fee-paying purposes) applicants for -2019- entry:
The number of applicants invited to interview, if data available. If not available, the date on which it will be available.
The number of final acceptances/enrolments.

For UK/EU applicants applying for -2018- entry:
The number of final acceptances/enrolments.

For international (for fee-paying purposes) applicants for -2018- entry:
The number of final acceptances/enrolments.

For UK/EU applicants applying for -2017- entry:
The number of final acceptances/enrolments.

For international (for fee-paying purposes) applicants for -2017- entry:
The number of final acceptances/enrolments.

Many thanks for your help.

Yours sincerely,

Dr Maynard
