Reading the score band These are the scores admitted students had — not a cut-off.

25th percentile
970
Average
1072
75th percentile
1180

A quarter of admitted students scored below 970 and a quarter above 1180. Being under the lower figure does not rule you out — it means the rest of the application has to carry more weight — and being above the upper one does not secure a place at a selective university. This intake sits inside a student body of about 3,170.

Getting in is the first question, not the last

Admission data says nothing about what the degree costs or returns. Before accepting an offer, read the net price for your family's income and the earnings of previous graduates — a place at a selective university financed with heavy borrowing can be a worse outcome than a place at a less selective one that costs little.
