Extended Diploma + A Level

So im going to apply for cronton and i really wanna do their Graphic Design course which is a BTEC (i think) and its equivalent to 3 A Levels, but I really wanna do Media Studies too.

Is that possible? Would it just be seen as 4 A Levels? and would it be as hard as that?

Yes it's possible in theory. However, you would need to check with Cronton to see whether they allow it and can timetable it. Yes it would be the equivalent of four A levels. Yes it would be as hard as that.

BTW, the Graphic Design course offered by Cronton Sixth Form College is not a BTEC. It's a UAL Extended Diploma. So the awarding body is not Pearson (who own the Exedcel and BTEC brands) but is University of the Arts London, UAL.
