What degree could i do with a levels in Art business psychology

Strictly speaking, none of the subjects you have are required subjects so you're somewhat limited to degrees that ask for A Levels in any subjects so long you get the grades.

With art and psychology, you can sometimes get picky courses where you need an A Level in art or psychology in order to do it at the specific university (namely art/design and psychology degrees), but generally you don't need them to do the subjects at degree level.

In terms of degrees that you can do, they should include:
Anything in business expect for financial mathematics and actuarial science (for obvious reasons)
Law
Anthropology
Archaeology
Sociology and criminology
Most psychology degrees
Some degrees in creative writing and English literature
Dance
Drama and theatre
Nonquantiative economics degrees
Education
Theology
Politics
Philosophy
Linguistics
Agriculture
Some art and design degrees, including architecture
Some geography degrees (usually ones with emphasis on human geography)
Some history degrees
Some nutrition degrees
Film
Game design
Hospitality and events management
Property and urban planning
Journalism
Media studies
Nursing
Paramedic science
Social work
Policing

From the above, you technically need degrees in nursing, paramedic science, nutrition, architecture, education, law, and psychology in order to go into specific professions in their respective fields. The degrees need to be accredited by individual professional bodies relevant for their respective fields. You can get into some of these fields through degree apprenticeships (in this case, architecture and law).

From the above, whilst you don't necessarily need degrees in order to get into some of the fields since employers would train you from the ground up, but having the relevant degree is recognised in sine the fields. These include social work, policing, journalism, urban planning, marketing, HR, accounting, and real estate - just make sure they are recognised by their respective professional bodies for their fields. In most cases, it's usually recommended that you skip the degree for these fields and just go straight into the line of work that you want.

Otherwise, the degrees above are usually only useful if you want to go into academia or for jobs that ask for degrees in any subject. On the plus side, there are over 600 careers that you can go into in this respect. On the minus side, you could have easily done the same jobs with 3 A Levels in any subjects or equivalent (and appropriate GCSEs or equivalent) with half decent grades.

I recommend you think through what sort of jobs that you want before deciding on the degree. I also recommend you think through what degree you are thinking of doing and why you want to do a degree for that matter.
If you're not doing a degree because you love studying certain subjects and/or you're just in it for a job that a degree can get you, I strongly recommend you reconsider what you're doing.
Law, and most social sciences, and many humanities subjects - look at the 'entry requirements' on any degree subjects that sound interesting : Undergraduate Courses, Degrees : Study : University of Sussex

What degree could i do with a levels in Art business psychology

Did you put art first because it’s alphabetically first or because it’s your favourite?

If you’re interested in a creative degree then https://www.wonderwhat.co.uk is worth spending some time on to explore what degrees and careers are available
Hi there,

I think the options you have picked will allow you to branch into almost any subject you want to in the future (excluding hard sciences)!

Psychology classes as a social science, so can get you into any social science degree course, business can get you into finance-type courses and art can get you into different artistic courses.

Overall, you could go into social sciences, business, finance, humanities! Whatever you would like to do

Thanks,

Hi there,

You've had some great advice already, but I just wanted to share a few websites that I think would be useful for your own research. These sites have been useful to me in the past and do a good job of helping you to understand what is out there - there's so much more than you think!

I hope this helps!
