What BTEC qualification to put on UCAS?

So I have completed year 1 of the applied science extended diploma however I decided to leave my college and I'm completing year 2 at another college right now. I've been told that I won't get a final grade for year 1 until the end of the course because I'm on an extended diploma. In that case, what qualification do I enter on UCAS for my previous college, should I place it as a foundation diploma and my current college as the extended diploma? I've placed it as a foundation diploma but I'm confused as I don't have a final grade for that.

You cannot put it as FD on UCAS unless you have an actual certificate, which it sounds like you dont have. You just put Extended Diploma on UCAS for your new college with an end date of July 2024 and grades as Pending.

Ok thanks!
Should I put the start date for my new college or my old college?
I started my old college in 2022 and my new one in 2023. So should I put September 2022 - July 2024 or September 2023 - July 2024?
