What is an access and participation plan?

Access and participation plans set out how higher education providers will improve equality of opportunity for underrepresented groups to access, succeed in and progress from undergraduate education. You can view the full access and participation plan for Loughborough University.

Key points

Loughborough University is a medium-sized, research university requiring high average UCAS tariff points for entry. Many of our undergraduate students are engaged in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) subjects and we have an outstanding reputation for sport and sports-related subjects.

The focus of our access and participation plan is to improve both access to our undergraduate courses and the degree awarding outcomes for certain groups of students. The continuation rate (to the next year of the course) and employment rates for all our students are areas of strength at Loughborough University.
