Note: This table only includes graduates from full-time courses at Scottish institutions that have found permanent employment in the UK within 6 months of graduating.

In this table, all numbers are rounded up or down to the nearest 5. Numbers may not sum to totals exactly due to rounding.

Figures in this table have been weighted, for further details please refer to the Methodological note on page 5.

Ten countries joined the EU in May 2004. Students from there are counted as non EU up to and including the academic year 2003-04. From 2004-05 onwards students from these countries are counted as EU domiciled students.

This table excludes graduates whose domicile is unknown.
