Dear Ella,

I am writing in response to your Freedom of Information request dated

For ease of reference, I have reproduced your questions below and set out
our corresponding responses.

 5. Lowest and average UCAT scores accepted for interview by non-

We do not record graduate applications or school leaver status for the

We can advise the lowest and average scores for non-contextual applicants
who were offered interviews.

column of data showing separately for "of which are rest of UK (English)
non- contextual non- graduate (school leaver) applicants".

As a Welsh institution, records for the rest of the UK include England,
Scotland and Northern Ireland. Information for individual nations is not
recorded separately and, therefore, we do not hold this information.  

I trust this information satisfies your enquiry.  Should you feel
dissatisfied with this response or the way in which your request was
handled you can request an Internal Review. This should be made in writing
within 40 working days of the date of this email. Please provide your
unique reference number of your request, information on why you are
dissatisfied and any detail you would like us to consider as part of the
Internal Review process. Email your request to [1][email address] where it
will be forwarded to the University’s Data Protection Officer who will be
responsible for overseeing the review.

If you remain dissatisfied following the outcome, you have the right to
apply directly to the Information Commissioner for consideration.  The
Information Commissioner can be contacted at the following address:
Information Commissioner's Office, Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow,
Cheshire, SK9 5AF. Further information is available on their
