Agency: UK school leavers accepted on degree courses reaches record
The number of UK school leavers accepted on to degree courses has risen to a record high this year, Universities and Colleges Admissions Service (UCAS) figures show.
A total of 262,820 UK 18-year-olds have gained a place at university or college – up 3% on the same point last year, according to data published by the university admissions service.
UCAS said it is the highest number of placed students on results day on record, driven by a rising number of 18-year-olds in the population.
The number of UK school leavers from the most disadvantaged backgrounds gaining a place is also up across England, Wales and Northern Ireland, according to the admissions service.
