Latest analysis note of the 2015 cycle

On Thursday 15 October, UCAS will publish its sixth analysis note of the 2015 cycle. The note looks at the distribution of achieved A level points for applicants placed by 10 September; 28 days after A level results day. It finds that the pattern of A level attainment for young people placed through UCAS has remained broadly similar over the past five years.

This note is a sector-level version of the confidential analysis for each university and college (DCA_Alevels_achieved_XXX_150910), using the same reference point and similar definitions, that has been available since Thursday 10 September via our SFTP (MOVEit), to which your UCAS Primary Correspondent has access. Further information about logging in to the SFTP is available in the User Guide.

This material is being released to you under strict embargo until 00:01 on Thursday 15 October, so please do not make any public comment until then.

Please pass this material on to your media and communications teams internally, so they’re aware of the publication date and the content.
