How we work this out

What it does

Oxford's own figures for Computer Science: how many applicants are interviewed and how many succeed.

Every Oxford undergraduate course page that prints admissions statistics: 48 courses and options, each a 3-year average for 2023 to 2025. The whole-university figure is the 2025 admissions cycle from Oxford's annual report.

Method

  1. Interviewed and successful are Oxford's own percentages of applicants, printed on each course page. Intake is the average number starting each year.
  2. The whole-university rate is students admitted divided by applications, all domiciles, from Table 1.1 of Oxford's Annual Admissions Statistical Report.
  3. The figures are read from Oxford's pages by script and dated; nothing is estimated.
