Dear Fred
I am writing further to your request for information regarding LLM admissions. A search of our electronic and paper records has been completed and I can confirm that the information requested is held by the University.
In answer to your request:
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
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
We estimate that the cost of complying with your request would exceed the appropriate limit as defined by the Freedom of Information Act 2000. This is because the information is not held centrally and we would need to search for it on individual applications for each of the three years concerned which we estimate would exceed the appropriate limit.
The Act sets a maximum cost of £450 for public authorities responding to requests for information. This represents the estimated cost of one person working for 3.5 days in determining whether the information is held, locating it, and retrieving it. Under Section 12 of the Act the University is not obliged to comply with a request that would exceed the appropriate limit. We have provided the information below within this limit.
If you are unhappy with the way in which your request has been handled and wish to request a review of our response or to make a complaint, please see the attached information sheet and form.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any enquiries regarding this email.
Yours sincerely,
Karen Page
