Uni help

I have just completed my GCSEs and I’m hoping to do dental hygiene and therapy at uni. I have met the entry requirements for the GCSEs however I was only able to take 2 levels (biology and art) and I also take health and social care btec. I’m not sure if I’ll be able to get into the course because of the Btec and it not being an a level. I know I can become a dental nurse and apply for the hygiene and therapy course after however I’d mainly like to start uni straight after sixth form so does anyone know any unis that’s would maybe accept me with the courses I am taking.

If 'A level / BTEC combinations' are not stated within the entry requirements on the relevant course pages, just email the Uni's Admissions Team, list your qualifications with full titles, and ask - they wont mind.
