Footnotes

  1. Data was extracted 25 October 2024.
  2. High Potential ITT (HPITT) route and undergraduate routes are not included in this data.
  3. Total candidates: the total number of candidates that applied to postgraduate ITT for courses that start in the given time period.
  4. Total accepted candidates: the total number of candidates who have accepted an offer to start ITT in the given cycle. This includes candidates who deferred an offer from a previous cycle. Withdrawn applications and deferrals into the next cycle have been excluded.
  5. Subject-level candidate totals will not sum to the total candidate number due to duplication caused by candidates applying for multiple subjects.
  6. STEM Subjects are Biology, Chemistry, Computing, Mathematics and Physics.
  7. In-cycle acceptance rate: in-cycle accepted candidates / total candidates.
  8. The in-cycle acceptance total and the acceptance rate are not shown in cases where candidate numbers are fewer than 30. Where small numbers are present, the acceptance rate can be volatile and potentially misleading.
