Second year uni transfer

So I’m currently studying psychology at UEA, but I’m not too happy with the uni and I’d like to transfer after the second year to a better uni, I achieved BCC at a level so I’m not too sure.

Not very likely, as Psych is a competitive subject and Unis will look at your A level grades and are usually not interested in letting anyone into their 2nd year that they wouldn't have let into their first year. You can email Unis and ask, but don't hold your breath.

I would consider Nottingham, Surrey, Liverpool and Exeter. They are more lenient with entry grades. I would call these universities, ask about second year entry and submit your grades. Ask for email confirmation if they said they will consider you as well as name and job title. I am also in this process different course and I have submitted my UCAS application with CCC grades. People like to make transfers more difficult then are, most universities don’t do second year transfers but as long as they do offer and your modules and grades are somewhat high they will accept you.
