clearing with 100 ucas points

Is it possible to get a place on a business type course with approx 100 ucas points from AS levels?

I'm looking at uni's such as Kingston, London Met, Manchester Met etc

Thanks

you might able to get into a scottish university because they have a different education system them england. They have an extra year instead of the normal three year which is like a foundation or something.

you have a look into that if you wanted.

It is unlikely that you will get into university with just 100 points on a degree course. If you had 160-200points from two a levels, you will probably be in a better position.

I know you can definately get into university on a foundation course (which is 1 year long), or a HNC/HND.

There is are courses here, you might want to check out: http://www.kingston.ac.uk/busfinancehnd/

Personally, if I was in your position I would finish the AS levels you already have to get A2s.

You only got 100 points from 4 AS levels? No offence, but I would work towards bettering your grades before going to uni. I mean that as nicely as a possibly can.

Isn't that going to be deee?

Most if not all universities require at least 2 A levels, a friend of mine had 4 As at AS level and asked London Met if they would give her an offer and they said no, eventhough she was an A grade student :s:

You would be probably better off doing a foundation year, Manchester Met do Business related ones. :smile:

As far as I know, there are no unis that will accept you for a degree course with only AS levels, especially not with only 100 UCAS points. As others said, you could do a foundation course, an HNC or an HND, but other than that, you'll need to carry on with at least 2 of your subjects to A2.
