Choosing a Foundation Course over a BA? Is it heard of?

I'm not in London, don't have a clue what uni's any of those letters are so sorry if I'm replying to a topic I don't know much about.

But, I chose a foundation degree rather than a BA, so I imagine that some of the same reasons apply to both of us.

My main reason for choosing the foundation was if I am going to get forced to go to uni (by my college, long story) then I am not going for any longer than I need to, so a 2 year foundation degree is more appealing than a 3 year BA. Additionally I believed the foundation would be easier, and therefore be a more bearable experience than if I was on the BA.

That was my 2 main reasons, does that help with your question?

If you want to know anything more about choosing foundation or BA ask and I will try to help.

Thanks for the reply! I think we're in two completely different boats here, because I absolutely can't wait to go to university, and I saw the foundation course as a detour from this. Now however, after reading some stuff online it seems like a really immersive and amazing creative course that could really prepare me creatively for what I will be doing on my BA. What are you currently studying?
