Dear UoO - Official Information Act,

I am writing to add a clarification to my previous Official Information Act request regarding the 2024 application cycle for halls of residence.

When providing the total number of applicants to each hall, could you please also include a breakdown of how many of the total applicants chose the halls as first choice, second choice, and third choice options?

Thank you for your attention to this additional detail.

Yours sincerely,

John
