Not too sure, but with those grades and just 2 'A' level subjects, don't expect it to be a joy ride.

look on the UCAS website, it won't be easy, but there might be some uni's that will accept you.

You can study business and management at UCY in Yeovil with just one A level, not sure if that is any help to you?!

How about UCLan? I know they accept people with just 2 A Levels.

offer grades are there for a very good reason, if you fail to meet them theres a chance you'll find the course hard. Have you thought about doing an extra year of A levels? or you could ring around unis and ask them if they're willing to be flexible, they may have certain grades on their site but still may be willing to take you if you can make a good enough case for yourself.

What about the university of bedfordshire (previously luton and bedford) The only reason I can think of this is because they had representatives standing outside our sixth form telling us that is wasn't too late to apply to bedfordshire and all you need is 2 a-levels. I'm not quite sure what their selling point was, but seeing as you only have 2 a levels it just reminded me

You could always do a foundation year? that might be an option, i'm going to be doing a science and engineering foundation programme at Queen Mary and will then progress onto the BSc Pharmaceutical chemistry degree. That way you can still go to a London uni and they will build up your confidence so that you know you are capable of copng with the demands of a degree. There are some good univerisites in that list such as City and London Met. Good luck I hope you find a course. :smile:

you need to phone them up, and push the decision along a little, tell them you need to know now if they will accept you. Its likely they are waiting to see if people apply via clearing with the requirements to fill the places.
