Cambridge admissions

2025–2026

Cambridge offers and acceptances, school by school

How many pupils applied, and how many received an offer? These are the latest Cambridge admissions figures we have for each school. A dash means we don’t have that figure, rather than that nobody reached that stage. Select a count to see its source.

Where a source says “accepted or admitted”, we keep that broader wording: it does not tell us how many pupils enrolled. If two publications give different counts for the same stage, both remain visible.

Where leavers went

1990–2026

15 of the 19 schools have published lists of where leavers went that name Cambridge, most recently for 2026

The 2026 lists are from Godolphin & Latymer, KCS Wimbledon, MCS Oxford, St Paul’s and Wycombe Abbey. 33 of the 140 destination mentions of Cambridge give no count, so a mention alone doesn’t tell you how many went.

Which years and schools are covered?

Cambridge appears in 1,047 of our records from all 19 schools, 1990–2026: 1,391 figures or mentions in all, because one record can give applications, offers and acceptances.

These count mentions, not pupils, so the rows don’t add up to a total and we don’t turn them into percentages. 236 mentions don’t say what they count; we list them as unclear rather than guess.

Offer, acceptance or place?

An offer may come with conditions; a destination tells you where a leaver actually went. Schools publish different amounts of detail, and their lists can overlap. That makes these figures useful for following a school’s history, but unsuitable for ranking feeder schools.
