About us
The Access and Widening Participation Office leads on the development and implementation of UCL’s strategies to widen access to UCL from underrepresented groups.

The team works closely with the Data and Impact team (part of the wider Social Mobility and Student Success area) to provide evidence of impact and to identify current trends and research that will inform the development of activity.
