How many applications to/offers from your Cambridge college, to read Mathematics were from applicants from Eton College? How many of these applications resulted in an interview?
Dear Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge,
I would be grateful if you could respect the FOI maximum timelines for answering such requests as a meaningful answer is a dependency for deciding whether to apply on Oct 15 to this college.
Please confirm how many applications were received from and offers made to applicants
from Eton College to read any combination of Mathematics at undergraduate Level at your college?
A second question is, of the applications from Eton College to read any combination of
Mathematics at undergraduate level, how many resulted in an interview?
I would be grateful if you could provide the date for the last 3 admissions cycles as a minimum but ideally for the last 5 cycles if possible.
In addition, if you have these Eton college Maths apply/interview/offer figures for Cambridge university as a whole I would also be grateful for that.
Best Wishes
