ANNUAL ADMISSIONS STATISTICAL REPORTMay 20212021 | UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD ANNUAL ADMISSIONS STATISTICAL REPORTPAG E 2 Foreword For a university with such a strong sense of place, this past year has been a highly unusual one in Oxford, where streets so often teeming with students have largely been silent for long stretches of time. The students who remained, and those studying from home, have displayed exemplary resilience and commitment to their education. Students and staff alike have taken enormous pride in the work of our academics in developing vaccines and therapeutics as well as enhancing our understanding of COVID-19. It is no surprise then that our ADMISSIONS numbers continue to rise as prospective students see the many contributions Oxford makes to society both nationally and the pandemic has, in many ways, changed the way we operate, it has not weakened our commitment to diversifying the make-up of our student body. In this, our fourth ANNUAL ADMISSIONS REPORT , we provide details of the success rate of British undergraduate applications by educational, regional, racial and socio-economic background as well as by subject and college.
