Private v state school admissions (offers accepted)
Good afternoon,
I am writing to request the following information under FOISA:
In each of the last six academic years, how many offers of a place to begin an undergraduate programme at your institution were accepted by (ie students matriculated and took up their place):
1. rUK (England, Wales, NI) domiciled students? How many of these gained their entry qualifications at a private or fee paying school?
2. EU domiciled students? How many of these who gained their entry qualifications at a private or fee paying school?
3. Scottish domiciled students who gained their entry qualifications at a private or fee paying school? if any of these applicants were in the SIMD20 regarding deprivation, please state how many.
4. overseas domiciled students? How many of these gained their entry qualifications at a private or fee paying school?
I would prefer the information broken down by academic year.
If you require any clarification or further information please let me know asap.
Many thanks.
Yours faithfully,
elizabeth thomson

Dear Ms Thomson
Re: Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002 – Request for Information
Thank you for your emails which were received by the Glasgow School of Art
on 2 June 2019 (refs: 359 and 360) and 11 June 2019 (ref: 366). GSA has
reviewed your request and realised the need to seek clarification from
you.
We do not hold information on the status of the schools our
applicants/students have attended. We are unable, therefore, to tell you
how many of the applications received, offers made and offers accepted
come from private or fee-paying schools. We can, however, provide you with
a breakdown of the number of applications received, offers made and offers
accepted according to the domicile status of applicants/students (as you
requested in the first part of questions 1, 2 and 4 in each of your
requests). If you would like us to do so, please let us know.
Until we receive clarification, GSA will consider this information request
to be suspended. The 20 working days to respond will commence when we
receive your clarification.
If we do not hear from you within 30 days of the date of this email we
will assume that you are no longer seeking access to this information and
GSA will take no further action.
Yours Sincerely
Fergus
