<p>The Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS) publishes statistics on
higher education initial participation rates in the annual Statistical First Release
<em>“Participation Rates in Higher Education”</em>. The latest figures refer to the
2013-14 academic year and are available at the link: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/participation-rates-in-higher-education-2006-to-2014"

/><p>BIS does not forecast higher education initial participation rates. UCAS has
published early statistics on university admissions for the 2015-16 academic year,
