UoA gave me the wrong offer?

Hey guys, so today I got a conditional for uni of abdn however it was for AA at higher and I am only sitting one higher this year and one NPA (level 6) which is a pass/fail so I can only get one A. Surely they aren't allowed to give offers like this? I'll take any advice as it's my first choice uni. TIA!!

Hi @ashywashy1,

It sounds like it is definitely worth getting in touch with the Admissions Team to clarify this. Mistakes can happen when issuing offers. It's possible that they have just issued the wrong condition and are willing to consider your one higher and NPA for the course, but it is also possible that they are under the impression you can achieve AA at higher level. The only way to find out is to get in contact with the uni. I hope this helps!

Best wishes,
Daniel
