Uni requirements for Btec??

I'm about to start my entended business diploma on btec and i'm unsure if i'll be able to do finance in uni when i graduate😭

Does anyone know how that works? will i have to start from scratch, as though i did regular highschool? and how long would it take? (my end goal is a bachelor's)

Many universities (typically the "better" ones) will mandate that you have A level Maths alongside your BTEC in order to meet the entry requirements for their Finance degree. However, not all do.

Here are some which (according to their stated entry requirements) would be happy with your BTEC on its own, subject to achieving the right grade.
Aston University - Finance BSc (Hons) - "BTEC Extended Diploma DDD (standard offer)" - details
Birmingham City University - Business Finance BSc (Hons) - "Pearson BTEC (Diploma / Extended Diploma/ Extended Certificate) | 112 UCAS Tariff points" - details
University of Northampton - Finance Bsc (Hons) - "DMM at BTEC/Cambridge Technical" - details
