Every row is a year ATM wrote down. The record runs unbroken from 1971-72 to 2024-25 — 54 years, no gaps.

The applications column counts applications, not individual students — the same student may apply in more than one year. The Trust has not yet defined how to convert this into a count of people, so no such figure is published.

One useful number

What a typical year looks like

Averaged across the whole record, the Trust has disbursed roughly this much every year since 1971.

We do not publish an average per student. The ledger counts applications, and the same student may apply in several years, so dividing one by the other would produce a number that means nothing. The Trust has not yet defined a student count.
