Headcount Student Data (QlikView) for the University of Glasgow
For the current term, registered student data is provided after 1 March to allow for January/February registrations of Postgraduate students. The graduate headcounts will become available in September and the winter graduations will be added in January.
This data is derived from the QlikView Student Dashboard, created and managed by Planning, Insight & Analytics. The source data is derived from MyCampus (the University's Student Record System).
The data uses the QlikView Standard Population for careers UG/PGT/PGR (not LLL) and includes Form of Study = Class Enrolment, Research, Visiting, Erasmus In, Exchange In, Dissertation Extension, Work Placement, and Reassessment of Dissertation, but excludes Form of Study = Erasmus Outgoing, Exchange Out, Language Year Out, Distance Learning, Online, Thesis Pending, Exams Only, and Sabbatical

Please note that the HESA Standard Registration population and the QlikView Standard population student headcounts cannot be compared.
- HESA headcounts are for reporting, i.e. all students, including withdrawn, online learning etc.
- QlikView student headcounts are for operational use i.e. actual students physically at the university, not including withdrawn, online learning etc.
QlikView headcounts are less than HESA headcounts because they exclude various categories of students. To follow is an example for 2017-18 (rounded to the nearest 100):
- Withdrawn (~700)
- Online Learning (~500)
- Distance Learning (~200)
- Staff Learning (~200)
- There are other small differences in "not send to HESA" plans which are in QlikView but not HESA.
In summary, if you require operational numbers, i.e. who is physically here, then use the QlikView student headcount model. If you require the headcount of all students, or to compare against other UK institutions, then use the HESA data. The QlikView student headcount contains students who are physically on campus. The HESA data contains students who we actually reported to HESA, for which we are bound by HESA guidelines and coverage rules.
