Grade+BTEC+University=Help??

You need to phone the admissions department on Monday morning and ask them; nobody on here will know. I'd think most likely yes.

I have last week but they just told me I'd have to wait till august the 14th to know if I'm accepted or not...

Then all you can do is wait. I think you'll still get in, as it's only one grade below and you've got a good amount of experience. Good luck

Solent seem to be very lax with entry requirements, good luck!

I did the exact same college course, which units did you do?

Good luck getting in

Southampton Solent will let anyone in.

I half hope that's true and half hope that's not because if it is and I do go to Southampton I don't want to get stuck with people who have got like D's or Fs and are let into the course. It wouldn't be fair on the people who tried really hard to get in. :P )

I did 19 units I think? An extended diploma in Creative Media Production, Level 3

We did quite a lot of different units like interview techniques, film studies, TV studies, multi camera, single camera, screenwriting for one year, editing for one year to. So lots of things like that.

If that's what you meant by what Units did I do?

I did 19 too. Yeah that is what I meant. I did; Interview Techniques, Designing Idents, Music Videos, Corporate Videos and others.

Ooh had sounds interesting, I did music video's to but I don't think I did Corporate videos and designing Idents which both sound interesting.

Idents were amazing (here's mine https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n2a4AwdOe9Y) Corporate Videos weren't that good. What else did you make?

Our last big project was a to set up and do a live show by ourselves, I was a camera oporator for that bit.

We also have set up gigs and filmed a couple of very short films and things like that.

And we set up and filmed a couple of interviews

And wow thats really good, we didn't do anything like that

Most of my work I did I left at college, there was a musical I filmed that I was proud of, it took two hours to film. But I don't think my lecturers put it on youtube yet but that was very good fun.


Most of my stuff I was the camera operator, I think thats what I wish to do, after I get into Uni (If I get into Uni)

What about you?

Hi, I'm new here so I'm not entirely sure what I'm doing but what I do know is I really need some advice?

I've applied for Southampton Solent University.

I have been doing a BTEC and have just finished my course and I also know my grades.

Here lies the problem.

To get into the course I wanted to get into I needed MMM

But I only got MMP

I'm only one grade of, will they accept me with this grade? Or at least consider accepting me?

I've done an extended diploma in creative media production and the course I applied for is BA (Hons) Television and Video production course

Though I've got a lot of experience in production side of things through my BTEC and volunteering on filming many things through my college, which I mentioned in my personal statement.

And my attendance is pretty good to.

Could I still be accepted into the course?

I'm quite panicked and scared here as I really, really want to get on to this course.

Anyone got any advice? Thank you

Wow that sounds amazing! We never got to do anything like that, our last project was we could make anything we wanted to that we had already made, I picked a documentary to bring the grade for that unit up.

Yeah we've done short films but that's it.

Thank you, it took forever to make.

I want to be a media teacher and teach a course similar to what we did.

I bet you'll be a great media teacher, most of my teachers in college were very good and much more friendly than the teachers I had at school )

Also two days ago I received notification from Ucas.

THEY'VE ACCEPTED ME! I GOT IN! SO EXITED AND HAPPY. I almost cried when I found out because I was so relieved and happy about it.
