Higher Education - context Student undergraduate control numbers capped for Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) HEIs can recruit unlimited numbers of AAB and ABB equivalents HEIs can recruit unlimited international and post- graduate students Fees set for undergraduates – up to £9,000 Office of Fair Access instructs universities to use a percentage of extra fee income on Widening Participation – this includes disabled students

Higher Education - context Nationally student applications decreased in Applicants unsure of the new system and applied later HEIs less able to predict numbers and what applicants would do Bursary and loan/grant offer varied across institutions Quality and career outcome still important HEI’s more customer/student focussed Student expectations and parents increased More students entered clearing

University of Brighton Applications decreased in line with sector – yet successfully recruited to control number and predictions Applicants confirmed intentions much later More students accepted through clearing Professional courses had a strong interest from applicants More effort put into pre –enrolment stage e.g. facebook groups

University Strategy “The University of Brighton is committed to conserving, generating, transmitting and sharing knowledge locally, professionally and globally, with a focus on its application for social purpose. We offer a higher education that contributes critically to citizenship and to the public good. Our model of higher education is based on a spirit of enquiry and the active co-production of knowledge amongst staff and students, in learning, teaching and research. We want Brighton staff and students to be known for their commitment to impact, community and sustainability in their chosen field.”
