The series was split in order to lessen computation times. The first round includes data from student applications for the academic years 2006-2014; the second round includes data from student applications for the academic years 2015-2019; and this third round includes data from student applications for the academic years 2020-2025. The dataset was generated from a set of Excel spreadsheets extracted from an Information and Communication Technology Services (ICTS) administrative database on student applications to the University of Cape Town (UCT). The data in this third part of the series contain information on applications to UCT made between April 2020 and September 2024. In the original form received by DataFirst the data were ill-suited for research purposes. The series represents an attempt at cleaning and organizing the data into a more tractable format.
