You dont meet the entry requirements for ecology subject combination wise so to my knowledge you’d have to do a foundation year. I actually cant find the suitable foundation year for ecology and conservation so you’ll have to look into that or email them I guess. Good luck with your uni placement!

i know they do have one, and that's another issue, i'm already older since i've done a gap year, but i will be two years older when i graduate. plus a year more of student loans and accommodation costs so i would really have to think about it, because of these factors.

I'm starting psychology in september at UEA, I managed to get in with BCC grades idk how. But I was thinking about transferring to Ecology when I got there.
I'm not even sure if that's possible because I didn't do the right A-Levels at all, i did english lit, french and psychology. But do you think it's worth trying, with my low grades and all?
edit: would it be worth trying to switch to a foundation year?

Hi @beefreya,
Congratulations on your grades and your offer to study at UEA !
Before you decide to switch courses I would suggesting getting in contact with our admissions team, to see what route would be best for you. You can have a live conversation here
All the best and any other questions do feel free to ask 😊

Hi again @beefreya
Please do not worry about being older than your peers. I have a lot of friends on my course who are older than me, as well as house mates too! Everyone is super friendly and wants to make friends 😊
In terms of student finance and accommodation costs, was you thinking about taking a maintenance loan ? This might also be worth mentioning with our admissions team too https://www.uea.ac.uk/study/enquiries/live-chat
I would also check out the government website as well! https://www.gov.uk/student-finance/who-qualifies
Hope this helps

I am going to UEA Ecology this year, I am 21- and going to be 22 in November. I took a two year gap, plus did a year at a different university which I am leaving for UEA. Message me if you need any help, I'm not sure if I'll be of any help though ahaha
