we regret that we have not been able to respond to requests as quickly as
we would wish.

University’s Response
Further to Section 1 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (the “Act”) we
confirm that the information requested is held by the University of
Bristol (the “University”).
However, we are unable to provide a line by line analysis for each
applicant as it could be possible to identify the individuals concerned.
The information is exempt from disclosure under Section 40 (2) of the Act
-third party personal information. This is an Absolute exemption therefore
there is no requirement to conduct public interest test. Any information
is exempt from disclosure under the Act if it relates to or is supplied by
another individual and disclosure of that information would contravene any
of the principles of the Data Protection Act (2018).
For further details on the selection process, please see the [1]Admissions
Statement for Medicine.
If you have any further questions which is not specific to individual
applicants, please submit a new request.
