Commenting on admissions of UK and international students to Russell Group universities on A level results day (18 August 2022), a Russell Group spokesperson said:
“This year’s figures show that so far in the cycle, the number of UK 18-year-olds securing undergraduate places at higher tariff universities is up by 24% on 2019, while the equivalent figure for international students is around 6%. These figures underline universities’ determination to provide a high-quality education for homegrown students.
