Conditional: Maintaining your grades will be the condition (AAAA-AAAB will probably suffice)

Not exactly but you can't deviate too far from it (Like I know a person who was predicted A*AA and got A*AB and got in)

It's not possible that you'll get an unconditional with only your igcse and AS scores. Maintaining your grades is really broad though so you would have a range to mess up in your A2s (Try your hardest to make your predicteds though)

Yes you do need to complete A2 to be able to study there in autumn but you can get a conditional offer with your predicteds.

sorry to bother you so much, I applied for fall 2018 so will they reply this year by maybe giving me a conditional offering? and then once I get my a2 grades in 2019 I then will only be accepted for fall 2019?

So you are taking your A2s in 2019? I'm not sure you can defer your offer like that unless you applied for deferred entry in the first place.

I'm taking my a2 this year 2018. I applied with my AS level which I wrote in 2017. What's a deferred entry?

Ok so you shouldn't have an issue; unless you are looking to go to uni in 2019 after your A2s and take a Gap Year.

Deferred entry is when you apply for the 2019 academic year in the 2017/2018 application cycle

Ok thanks a lot! your time is much appreciated!
Were you planning on going to university in Canada after AS level, in place of doing A2? Since they finish high school a year before we do, the majority of students would be 17/18.

You are still required to finish high school in the UK to gain entry to their university. The qualification is what you are judged on, not your age. So, from my understanding, you are required to do A2 if you want to gain entry.
