The first data release for the 2021 admissions cycle has recently been published by UCAS. The data covers potential students who applied to undergraduate courses before October 15th 2020, who have historically made up around 15 per cent of all international applicants, and offers the first look at application trends for the 2021/22 academic year. In contrast to some predictions the data shows that the number of international applicants has increased by 8 per cent overall, with non-EU applicants up 20 per cent while EU applicant numbers have fallen by 19 per cent.
