Year 12s: what will be the first way you research your future options? >>

Are slight changes possible??

So I've receieved an offer I want to take, but what if I want a slight change? For example, going from a 4 year sandwich to the normal 3 year course.

I've heard this is possible, is this true (if I get in contact with the university itself??)

Thanks...

Yes, it's just a case of calling the Admissions Office to sort out if they'll let you :P I can't see why they wouldn't though.

Then they'll just inform UCAS and the offer will change accordingly.

They may well just tell you (the uni) to accept the offer, and you can transfer when you get there.

Yeah its possible :smile:

Contact the university and just ask if you can switch from the sandwich to the 3 year.

Most of the time when it's something like that you can choose whether to do it or not when you're on the course, regardless of what you initialy applied for, but check that out.

No, unis are still open over half term (although I'd love it if they closed!)

To be honest you'd probably choose if you wanted to do the sandwich year at some point in the course anyway, but best to be safe and phone up the uni.
