Eton: US and overseas universities

Latest Oxford and Cambridge figures: 2025 admissions round. Latest list of where leavers went: 2015 leavers. Last checked 15 Oct 2026

Where leavers went overseas

We don’t have a dated overseas destination list naming individual universities for Eton. The records below keep offers, expected destinations and other mentions separate. A missing list doesn’t mean no leavers took up places.

You’re looking at one part of Eton’s university history. See every university record together.

Every university record, by year

Applying, receiving an offer, accepting it and taking up a place are different steps. Each has its own table so that you can follow what the school actually reported. The summary tables are on this page; each year’s named universities, courses and subjects have a page of their own.

Latest year

2023

For 2023 we have 1 record of where leavers went: 0 with figures, 1 naming a university without a figure. Each comes from its own publication and may describe a different group of leavers, so they are not added together.

That count is for 2023 alone. We hold 17 US and overseas records for Eton in all: acceptances, 2000–2014; where leavers went, 2023. All 17, newest first.

1 university named for 2023 without a count. A university named without a count may mean one pupil or many.

Offers, applications and expected destinations are in the tables below.

What schools reported, year by year, 2000–2023. Accepted: 2000–2014; Where leavers went: 2023.

A filled square means we have found at least one figure of that kind for the year. It shows which information is available; it does not describe how well leavers did.

116 records in 11 summary tables.

We don’t add tables together: publications can overlap. A university named without a count may mean one pupil or many. A dash means no figure.
