I study Maths, Chemistry and Geology, my plan was originally to study chemical engineering however I've been swayed off after doing more research into it. Can I still study computer science despite the fact I did not choose it as an A level and have little to know prior knowledge, I did computer science at GCSE but its all a it of a blur. Are apprenticeships also out the window considering I have no knowledge on computer science ?

So to answer your question in short check the uni requirements.

Most undergrad CS courses don't need you to have taken it at A-Level, (Maths is often a requirement, so you are fine there).
As above, you need to demonstrate an interest and suitability for the subject in your PS. Fortunately there's a lot of resources online, so you should be looking at things like programming challenges/tasks as well as lectures.

However I would strongly consider why you want to study it. If you have little to no prior knowledge, what's made you suddenly want to study it? How do you it's even right for you if you don't have much experience? I'd look at answering these questions first before jumping into something.
