MCS Oxford: named universities and courses, 2024

1. What it counts: UCAS apply-centre 12528; Magdalen College School, Oxford; 2024 Cambridge cycle applicants, not the school leaver cohort Where it’s from: Checked against the text of the university’s original PDF; the live web copy couldn’t be reopened at the time. Worth knowing: Original printed token: 24. The original page 1 footnote states that raw figures less than 5 are reported as 5, except zeros remain 0. A printed 5 therefore represents 1–5; it must not become an exact count. Original PDF text layer and table headings checked. Direct public retrieval failed; held-file materialisation returned HTTP 502, so no fresh rendered-page visual check is claimed. How the source defines it: University-published acceptances by named apply centre and cycle. The table is not a destination register or an admissions probability.

Every row: Where it’s from: Original publication

1. Worth knowing: The report separately states starts and next-year deferred places. Do not infer missing categories or force these figures to exhaust the year group. How the source defines it: Upper Sixth cohort, same-autumn starts and following-year deferrals
2. Worth knowing: Application-entry-year population may include previous leavers; no denominator is inferred from current Upper Sixth starters. How the source defines it: Share of pupils applying for autumn 2024 entry who gained first-choice university places
3. Worth knowing: Population is not expressly confined to same-year Upper Sixth starters. Some totals exceed that subgroup; no rate is derived. How the source defines it: Total final places at Russell Group universities as printed
