UHR admissions statistics

What it actually took to get in — per programme, per selection group, per admission round, back to autumn 2011.

What it is

The Swedish Council for Higher Education (UHR) runs national admissions and publishes the resulting statistics. This integration is a live proxy onto that service: applicants, first-choice applicants, admitted students and entry scores, per programme and per selection group.

Use it for

• “What was the entry score for this programme in the last three admission rounds?”
• “How many first-choice applicants did this programme have, and how many were admitted?”
• “Compare entry scores between these universities for the same subject.”
• “Has this programme’s entry score been rising or falling?”

Tools

Function	Answers
Usage guide	How programmes and selection groups are named, and how to read a score — the assistant reads this first
Programme search	Admissions figures for programmes matching a query: applicants, first-choice applicants, admitted, and entry scores per selection group

Two tools, which is the honest size of this one — it answers a narrow question well rather than a broad one vaguely.

Data and permissions

• Public statistics, no key. Nothing about your organisation passes through.
• Read-only.
• Live proxy. No local copy, so no staleness.

Getting started

Add the MCP server to an assistant and ask.

Limitations

• Sweden only, and only programmes that go through national admissions.
• From autumn 2011. Earlier rounds are not available.
• An entry score is a historical outcome, not a threshold. It records where the line fell that round, given who applied. It does not predict the next round and must not be presented to an applicant as a requirement.
• Selection groups are not comparable to each other. A score in one group means something different from the same number in another, and a comparison that ignores the group is wrong.
