Feedback from the December 2011 admissions process

On the left of this page are links to subject-specific reports on the most recent undergraduate admissions round for entry in the academic year 2012-13.  Most reports are prepared by tutors in the College; some are departmental reports. All the information and comments are designed to help with future applications and also to provide an indication to unsuccessful candidates and their referees as to the most likely reasons they were not selected in this round. The vast majority of our applicants are very talented, with exemplary academic backgrounds, and the most usual reason for non-selection is of course simply that it is an exceptionally competitive process. Some more specific indications of what tutors in particular subjects are seeking, and the processes and competition in each area, can be found on each page.

If you have been a referee for an unsuccessful candidate, we would enourage you very much to continue to send your able students to us, taking into account the comments here regarding any of the subject areas in which they may be interested. You may also contact the College admissions office for any specific advice you require.

You may also wish to look at the details of subject offerings at Keble listed in our Online Prospectus, and our list of College academics by subject area.
