Notes for information

• These statistics refer, unless otherwise indicated, to applications made from September 2021 onwards for admission to
courses starting in October 2022 or by deferred entry to courses starting in October 2023. Applicants holding a deferred
offer from previous admissions rounds are not included. Please note that the statistics also exclude 288 applicants
through UCAS who did not submit My Cambridge Application in addition to a UCAS application, as required to complete
their submission to the University.
• The term ‘Home’ refers to applicants who have indicated in their UCAS application that they are permanently resident
in the UK. For more information about the UCAS application process, please see:
www.ucas.com/undergraduate/applying-to-university.
• Gender data throughout uses the binary female/male options provided via the UCAS application, and may not reflect
the gender identity of all applicants.
• Offer figures refer to applicants who received a conditional or unconditional offer of a place.
• Acceptance figures include only those applicants who received an unconditional firm offer of a place. It excludes those
made conditional offers who were unsuccessful at confirmation.
• Success rate figures show the proportion of applicants accepted at confirmation.
• Percentages throughout have been rounded to one decimal place, so values given may not always add up to 100.
• Please note that the statistics are not intended for use in the University’s return to the Office for Students (OfS), as they
are calculated on a different basis.
• Equivalent tables for the previous application cycle may be found in:

Summary
The 2022 admissions cycle followed two cycles conducted during the COVID-19 pandemic, during which larger than
usual numbers of applicants were accepted. As a consequence, 2022-cycle figures are better compared with pre-
pandemic offer and acceptance levels.
Please note that last year’s figures are shown in italics in brackets.

Mathematics includes those applying for Mathematics and Mathematics with Physics. The courses in Management Studies
and Manufacturing Engineering can be taken only after Part I in another subject, and this was also the case for Chemical
Engineering during the 2022 cycle. Applications, offers and acceptances for these courses are recorded under the first year
subjects taken by the applicants involved.

The terms ‘Maintained’ and ‘Independent’ refer to UK schools/colleges, so figures provided in the lower half of the table against the ‘Maintained’ and ‘Independent’ labels refer to
applicants permanently resident outside the UK applying following education in UK schools/colleges. The ‘Other and Overseas’ category consists largely of applicants at schools and
colleges outside the UK, but includes applicants from a variety of non-school/college institutions within the UK. Academies in England are counted within the Comprehensive School
category if their admissions policy is non-selective, or the Grammar School category if their admissions policy is selective.
For applications from Home students attending UK schools/colleges the proportions of acceptances by school/college type are:
Maintained 72.9% (71.6% in the previous cycle)

Independent 27.1% (28.4% in the previous cycle)

* While most applicants for the Medicine Graduate Course apply to Cambridge for entry directly following study at an HE
institution, some applicants undertake further science A Level study at UK schools or colleges and are categorised
accordingly above. Such applicants are recorded in this table for completeness but omitted from the charts that follow as
their number is so small.

The College of application in the data above is defined as the applicant’s first choice College (or, in the case of an open
applicant, the College to which the applicant was allocated) regardless of subsequent transfers through the pools.
The figures include only Home applicants who applied from a school or college in the UK and show the percentage of
applications, offers and acceptances by College from the maintained sector, including FE institutions.
* The majority of applicants to the three Mature Colleges apply from institutions other than UK schools and colleges, or
independently of a school or college. Relevant applications and acceptances are counted in this table, but differences of
one or two applicants can have a disproportionate effect on the percentages year-on-year and no particular conclusion
should be drawn from this.

to the University in any given year, the sole exception to this rule being those wishing to be considered for both the
standard Medicine and Graduate Medicine courses.

where 5 signifies the highest-participation neighbourhood quintile and 1 the lowest. More information about POLAR
methodology is available at: www.officeforstudents.org.uk/data-and-analysis/young-participation-by-area.

This data relates to applicants (who may apply for up to five courses in their UCAS application) rather than the total number
of applications made by applicants. Applicants to Cambridge are usually permitted to make only one application to the
University in any given year, the sole exception to this rule being those wishing to be considered for both the standard
Medicine and Graduate Medicine courses.

applicant’s residential neighbourhood. Applicants are flagged if they live in a neighbourhood whose characteristics are
associated with relative disadvantage and low Cambridge application rates. More information about OAC methodology is

Applications:
• Applicants to Cambridge can choose to make a direct application to a College of their choice or to make an open application, where the application is allocated to a College by computer
algorithm.
• Applicants may be placed in the Winter Pool by the College to which they applied (or were allocated in the case of open applicants) for a number of reasons, summarised here:
www.undergraduate.study.cam.ac.uk/applying/decisions.
Offers:
• Direct offers are those made by the College to which applicants applied (or were allocated in the case of open applicants), regardless of whether the application was placed in the Winter Pool.
• Offers made via the Winter Pool are those made to pooled applicants by a College other than that to which they applied (or were allocated).
• Offer-holders may sometimes be placed in the Summer Pool by their offering College if, following the publication of examination results, they have narrowly missed the conditions of their
offer.
Acceptances:
• For offer-holders, acceptances may be made by the offering College, regardless of whether the application was placed in the Summer Pool, or by a College other than that which made the
original offer via the Summer Pool.
• Additionally, some applicants from under-represented backgrounds who were not originally made an offer, and who perform better than expected in summer examinations, may become
eligible for reconsideration in the August Reconsideration (AR) Pool. Such applicants may be accepted by any College via ARP. Further information about the August Reconsideration Pool
(formerly known as Adjustment) is available here: www.undergraduate.study.cam.ac.uk/august-reconsideration-pool.
