want to apply for a completely different degree..

Posting this in the applications sub-forum, as I'm probably gonna have to apply all over again..

I know many people change courses when they get to university, but generally the changed course is normally a similar subject to the original. Ive firmed since January to do Psychology, however recently, due to the way my A levels are going and just general preference towards the subject, I really want to do French at uni and the more I weigh up the pros and cons, the more I think French is a better choice. My first choice uni also doesn't have a department for foreign languages, so I'd have to go to a completely different uni, making a changeover all the more difficult.

The thing I'm wondering is - how am I meant to go about this? Do I wait until results day to voluntarily go into clearing to find a Frenvh? Do I speak to my sixth form teachers or UCAS themselves to see if there's anything I can do before actually enrolling on my original course choice? Or should I just apply for UCAS all over again next year? The accomodation at my firm choice is all organised, as is my student finance too.

I'd appreciate someone's input
