Figures include the Open University but exclude those on writing up, sabbatical or dormant mode of study. 2 Breakdowns for mature and part-time students contain double counting (i.e. part-time students over 21 years of age will be included in both columns). 3 Mature undergraduate students are aged 21 and over. Figures include a small number of students whose age was unknown. 4 Figures for 1997/98 exclude the Open University because there are no figures available for entrants to undergraduate courses at the Open University by local authority for this year. 5 As a consequence of a problem identified with data submitted by the Open University (OU) in the 2004/05 academic year, a number of students were not returned as entrants although included in the total enrolments figure. However as a result, the increase in entrants between 2004/05 and 2005/06 appears greater than in reality, particularly in respect of undergraduate entrants.
