Dear Mr Hemmingway

Thank you for your request for information from Durham University.
 Colleagues have provided the information below in response to your
questions.

Across all your LLM programmes, for the three most recent academic years,
I would like to request the following data on applicants who have studied
their undergraduate degrees at UK universities only:

1)

i) a) Number of people applying with a predicted 1st and b) Number of
these people given an offer

ii) a) Number of people applying with an achieved 1st and b) Number of
these people given an offer

2)

i) a) Number of people applying with a predicted very high 2:1 (overall
67%+) and b) Number of these people given an offer

ii) a) Number of people applying with a predicted very high 2:1 (overall
67%+) and b) Number of these people given an offer

3)

i) a) Number of people applying with a predicted a mid 2:1 (overall
64-66%+) and b) Number of these people given an offer

ii) Number of people applying with a predicted a high 2:1 (overall
64-66%+) and b) Number of these people given an offer

4)

i) Number of people applying with a predicted a low 2:1 (less than overall
64%) and b) Number of these people given an offer

ii) Number of people applying with a predicted a low 2:1 (less than
overall 64%) and b) Number of these people given an offer

Information is not held for questions one to four.  The University does
not hold data for applicants, the overall classification only is held, not
any breakdown of 2:1.

5) According to the applicant's achieved undergraduate overall percentage
rather than predictions,

i) The number of people with firsts enrolling

ii) The number of people with very high 2:1s enrolling

iii) The number of people with high 2:1s enrolling

iv) The number of people with mid 2:1s enrolling

v) The number of people with low 2:1 enrolling

Please refer to the table below for the information held on entrants. 
 Please note that the majority of the entrants to the University’s LLM
degrees are overseas students and therefore we do not always have
classifications for overseas qualifications (as some overseas
qualifications don’t carry a classification).  Therefore we have only
broken down the “UK First degree with honours” into the classifications. 
This is the only level of detail we would be able to provide.

Entry Qualification 2016-17 2017-18 2018-19
UK first degree with honours Class I 7 <5 9
Class II Division 1 15 17 13
Other qualifications/classifications (eg, UK
Masters, Non-UK first degree, UK first degree
other classifications) 118 134 117

If you are dissatisfied with the University’s response to your freedom of
information request, you can ask us to internally review our handling of
your request, including the application of any exemptions applied.  To do
