Rape and sexual assault reports 'rise tenfold' at UK universities with Cambridge University in spotlight

Allegations of rape and sexual assault have risen tenfold at UK universities, with Cambridge seeing some of the highest claims, an investigation has revealed.

The number of allegations made to universities per year rose from 65 in 2014 to 626 in 2018, Freedom of Information requests by Channel 4 News show.

The investigation found the University of East Anglia had the highest number of reports, followed by Cambridge.

The UAE had 281 reports since 2014, while Cambridge received 165 in the last three years. The University of Birmingham also recorded 87.


It is feared that this could be the “tip of the iceberg” as campaigners warn that universities are not equipped to with the flood of complaints and risk leaving a “generation betrayed”.

The Crown Prosecution Service and Police strongly encourage victims to come forward and report crimes.
