I write to request for most recent data relating to Students' university admission. This data is needed to enable me carry out research on UK computer science admission trend analysis in partial fulfilment of dissertation presentation.

We said

Thank you for your request.

We currently hold higher education (HE) student enrolment data covering academic years 2011/12 to 2020/21. This is published by the Higher Education Statistics Agency (HESA) and is publicly available on their website HE student enrolments by level of study 2011/12 to 2020/21.

Data broken down by subject of study and age group is held for 2014/2015 to 2018/2019 and can be found on the following page Table 6 - HE student enrolments by subject of study and age group 2014/15 to 2018/19 | HESA. Computer science can be found at row 8 of the table.

We do not currently hold older, HE enrolment data, your request maybe better pleased with HESA directly who can be contacted on the following email address: official.statistics@hesa.ac.uk.
