    Entry requirements help
    For the course I want to apply to the entry requirements it says 280 UCAS points at A2 or equivalent, I wasn't sure if this means that I can include the points from my AS and general studies? Thanks x

    It will mean you can include any completed A-levels (AS and A2) but not those subjects you only did to AS

    I would assume without AS points, as it says 'at A2 or equivalent'. Email them if unsure.

    They mean A level, and equivalents such as BTEC. If your General Studies was a full A Level it would be accepted. Your As levels will not be. You must complete these As levels to the full A level for them to be accepted, but you will most likely gain an offer if you apply with enough As levels that you do intend to complete the A Level year of.
