Transparency data
This page shows the number of University of Leeds students who attained a particular degree or other academic award, or a particular level of such an award, when they completed their course with us.
The University is required by the Office for Students (OfS) to provide this data.
It also shows these numbers by reference to:
- The gender of the individuals to which they relate
- Their ethnicity
- Their socio-economic background, based on English Index of Multiple Deprivation (EIMD) quintile which looks at data on the students’ neighbourhood.
You can view the data in accessible format in the tables included on this page or download the full transparency data return for 2023 (Excel format).
Rounding and suppression of data
The data contained in tables 1a and 1b have been rounded and suppressed as follows:
- Numerators and denominators have been rounded to the nearest 10. Where the numerator or denominator rounds to 20 or less, the data will be suppressed for data protection purposes and will be shown as "N".
- Percentages will be rounded according to the smallest, unsuppressed denominator with a given mode and characteristic. If the denominator rounds to:
- 50 or less: percentages are rounded to 5%
- 1000 or less: percentages are rounded to 1%
- More than 1000: percentages are rounded to 0.1%
- "N/A" means “Not applicable” and is displayed where there is no provision in a given mode or level.
- "DP" indicates suppression for data protection reasons. This is applied where the numerator is two or less, or differs from the denominator by no more than two students.
