University’s Response

confirm that the information requested is held by the University of
Bristol (the “University”).
Please find the information for questions 1-4 in the document attached.
Please note that the University does not release exact counts of less than
five because these are personal data of third parties or, if linked with
other personal identifiers in the public domain, would be likely to become
personal data. This information has been withheld under section 40(2) of
the Act, on the grounds that disclosure would likely breach the data
protection principles enshrined in the Data Protection Act 2018.
Information for the 2020 application cycle will be available from
December. Please resubmit your request then if you still require that
information.
5. This information is exempt from disclosure under section 21 as the
information is accessible by other means. Please refer to the [1]Medicine

the Admissions Enquiries Team ([email address]).
