Delivering more accurate and relevant data to you for the 2025 cycle – briefing document

Following extensive sector engagement, for the 2025 cycle we have been working on some changes to capture better data from students to across two key areas of the application: Fees, residency, nationality and address history, education and qualifications.

Posted Wed 29 November 2023

We will be amending the link products (XML-Link and Web-Link) to ensure that this new and amended application data is available to you.

To support you in understanding and preparing for the changes we’ve created a briefing document which can be viewed here: https://www.ucas.com/providers/news-and-developments/provider-developments-ucas#developments-for-the-2025-cycle-and-beyond- 

Should you require more detailed technical specifications, a technical briefing document is also available: https://www.ucas.com/providers/news-and-developments/upcoming-developments

The changes have been discussed in our fortnightly development webinars, and on 18th October we presented a full summary and wireframes.  If you missed the webinar you can watch it here: https://players.brightcove.net/4824244714001/default_default/index.html?videoId=6339712568112
