JUPAS themed collection
Largest Intakes
The biggest first-year intakes for 2026 entry. Large cohorts mean statistically more room in the allocation — handy anchors for any programme list.
Selection criteria
Sorted by the JUPAS-published first-year intake for 2026 entry, largest first; combined-figure publications are flagged.
368 programmes match the criteria; the top 20 are listed below.
The bracketed percentage = the programme's admission median ÷ that programme's OWN full mark (theoretical maximum weighted score). Institutions publish scores on different scales, so this percentage is what makes them comparable; it is omitted where the full mark cannot be derived.
