Statistics on first year BA students
Dear Anglia Ruskin University,
I am writing to you under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 to seek the following information from the three most recent academic years (2018/19, 2019/20 and 2020/21:
1) How many BA students applied to the university this year?
2) How many first year students dropped out in first term?
3) How many first year students chose to defer a year?
4) How many first year students live on campus?
It would be great if you could provide this information in an Excel spreadsheet rather than a PDF.
Under Section 16 it is your duty to provide advice and assistance and so I would expect you to contact me if this request is in unmanageable in any way. You can reach me via email or telephone (07880439206).
Thank you for your time and I look forward to your response.
Yours faithfully,
Sophie Ward
Dear Sophie,
