National datasets show the sub-set of data relating to applicants from each country. Applicant region is shown for England.

Before 1998 entry, UCAS presented regional data by Standard Statistical Region (SSR), which is not directly comparable with Government Office Region (GOR) used for 1998 entry onwards. Regions most affected by the change include the North (now divided into the North East and North West regions) and the North West (which has been expanded to include the county of Cumbria, formerly in the North). Merseyside, which was previously included in the North West, is now listed independently. East Anglia was redefined and expanded as the Eastern region, including Essex, Hertfordshire and Bedfordshire. Consequently, the South East region became substantially smaller.

For statistical purposes, Clearing accepts include those accepted through UCAS Extra and direct entrants, unless otherwise stated.

For statistical purposes, Degree includes Foundation degrees, unless otherwise stated.
