The Higher Education Statistics Agency (HESA) publish statistics on the number of students enrolled at UK Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) here: https://www.hesa.ac.uk/data-and-analysis/students.

In the academic year 2014/15, there was a total of 972,330 English domiciled students enrolled on full-time undergraduate courses at UK HEIs. This compares to 1,004,505 in the academic year 2015/16 and 1,032,950 in the academic year 2016/17.

Equivalent data for the academic year 2017/18 will be published by HESA on 17 January 2019.
