You’re looking at one part of SPGS’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
2025
For 2025 we have 10 records of where leavers went: 10 with figures, 0 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 2025 alone. We hold 17 US and overseas records for SPGS in all: acceptances, 2009; where leavers went, 2009–2026. Of those, 6 aren’t among this tab’s US and overseas records, though each names or counts universities abroad; they include where leavers went in 2026. All 17, newest first.

Questions
Questions about SPGS’s results
Why do published Oxford totals differ?
Because they count different things, and need not count the same people, even when they carry the same year. Applications, offers and acceptances belong to an admissions round, while a school’s own list of where its leavers went is a record of a leaving year. So anyone puzzling over an Oxford total should ask what it counts, and which year it means, before setting it beside another.
Read the answer: Why do published Oxford totals differ?What does a top-grade percentage leave out?
A top-grade percentage is one cut, made at the very top. Wider bands such as A*–B show more of the spread, and the count of entries shows how many exams stood behind it, which sharpens the question, though none of them can say how much of a result the school itself caused. Before trusting whichever school the top grade puts first, it pays to move the line down a grade or two and look for the count.
