English University of Southampton

Hi,

I need another aspiration choice and am considering university of Southampton.

The entry requirements are AAB and I have a BBC. The lowest grades held were BCC.

I am Open to a different course Like English and philosophy or English language and literature or English with creative writing, which seem to all have a higher acceptance rate for students with my grades.
Hi @leftover-medalli! So glad to hear that you are considering Southampton as one of your options :smile:. I would say it is worth applying to Southampton as universities understand that grades may improve across the year. I would also look into whether you qualify for any contextual offers, as these can reduce the grades needed quite significantly! If you do not end up meeting the grades you need on results day, I highly encourage you to look into the course on clearing. Personally, I was below the required grades and secured a place on my course through clearing. There are so many ways to the university so please do not feel discouraged!

If you would like to speak to an admissions tutor for English, please contact Dr Gillian Dow, who would be more than happy to help (email [email protected])

If you need any further help please don’t hesitate to ask!
