HESF23 Higher Education Students Forecast 2023-24

This document sets out requirements for the Higher Education Students Forecast survey 2023-24 (HESF23).

It is relevant to higher education providers that:

• have registered (or applied to be registered) with the OfS in the Approved (fee cap) category
• do not have higher education provision recognised for OfS funding purposes in 2022-23
• will offer higher education provision recognised for OfS funding purposes for the first time in 2023-24.

The data collected provides a forecast of higher education students expected to study on courses recognised for OfS funding in 2023-24 and will inform the allocation of teaching funds for 2023-24.
