i recently got my diploma in musical theatre and now i’m looking to apply to university. I know it’s worth a third of a degree but does any university actually care ?

You will need to contact each Uni individually to see if they will accept this.

Just be aware that this qualification isnt likely to allow you to skip the first year on any degree, and certainly not for an entirely separate subject like Literature. It might be accepted for relevant practical performance courses (ie. Musical Theatre degree – BA (Hons) – Bath Spa University), but that is a decision for each University.

Do you have any other Level 3 qualifications - A levels, L3 BTECs etc?

I have A levels already and ended up with BBC, just trying to get all the advantage's possible in hopes of getting into a decent Russell group. I'm also going to complete a TEFL in Thailand in October which I imagine should help
