Offers to EU students increase by 100

Among the increased number of CAO offers this morning, there are nearly 100 more EU students being offered places than this time last year.

This is likely a direct impact of increased applications from countries whose students might otherwise may have been seeking entry to UK colleges, although it is unclear if concerns about Brexit will necessarily see all those additional places being accepted.

Regardless, those EU students still only account for less than 600 of the overall 52,374 applicants who got their college offers by email this morning.
