We are offering you the chance to receive all the underlying data for your provider as a computer readable data file. This data supply is free and will be available under an internal-use EXACT licence.
With this data, you can replicate any analysis of your own provider that you could commission through the EXACT data service. We plan to make a similar supply, each year the EXACT data service operates.
The supply will be transferred to you through the secure file transfer service, to which your UCAS Primary Correspondent has access. You can find instructions on how to download the data in the Secure File Transfer User Guide.
Data will be supplied from 17:00 on Thursday 26 May to 17:00 on Friday 17 June. The data will not be available outside of these dates.
If you are unable to access the secure file transfer service, please contact the HEP Team on 01242 545 734.
