We are the experts in UK higher education data and analysis. We have been collecting higher education information since the 1994/95 academic year.</p> <p>Student data is taken from both the <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20230127231419/https://www.hesa.ac.uk/collection/c21051">HESA Student record</a> and the <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20230127231419/https://www.hesa.ac.uk/collection/c21054">HESA Student Alternative record</a>. Universities, colleges and other higher education providers return data to HESA via one or other of these records on an annual basis. The records collect a wide range of information, including data about students' personal characteristics, courses and modules of study, and qualifications achieved. The Student alternative record first began in the 2014/15 academic year, with data published from the record from 2015/16 onwards.
