Medical School Applicant (A100) Demographics

We're waiting for Claire de Bruijn to read recent responses and update the status.

Dear University of East Anglia,

My request is regarding statistics for the A100 medicine course applicants. All requests are for the 2020/2021 cycle. If data for the 2020/2021 cycle is not possible, I would like it for the 2019/2020 cycle.

Please can I have the following anonymous data about all the candidates that applied (including those who were rejected, those were offered an interview, those who were offered a place on the course and those whose applications have not been reviewed yet):

1. For each applicant, can I know what their ethnicity was?
2. For each applicant can I know what their religious status was?
3. For each applicant, can I also know whether they were home or international (if so which country do they reside?)
4. Please can I know what type of school the applicant went to (independent, grammar, or state)?
5. The fee status of each applicant.
6. A Levels already gained or predicted grades (i.e. have they taken a gap year)?
7. Whether the applicant had a learning difficulty or disability.

Please can I have all this data in an Excel sheet.

Yours faithfully,

Claire de Bruijn
