Can you be TOO good for Oxford Foundation Year?

Hi guys! First time here :smile:

So, I did average in my GCSEs, but I have "bloomed" (as my UCAS advisor put it) in my A Levels. I want to apply for the Foundation Year, but I'm scared that my predicted grades are too high. And, I'm scared they'll reject me if I do too well.

Is this possible? :frown:

Thanks!

If you are made an offer, you can't be rejected for then exceeding that offer.

If you're worried, why not email Oxford and have a chat about it?

Hi! I'm planning on applying to the foundation programme and I exceeded the entry requirement by far, I was wondering what happened in your case? Did they reject you? I'm a bit worried that the might not like me because they will consider me 'too strong' although I really want to go
