Possibility of Access to Higher Education course to get into Cardiff Uni?

Hi all, I became highly interested in the Diagnostic Radiography and Imaging (BSc) course at Cardiff University, but this interest only came about during my gap year after completing my A-levels. I don't have an A-level in Biology, Chemistry, Physics, or Psychology and any one of these A-Levels is required to enrol onto the radiography course. If I were to go back to college to complete an Access to Higher Education (Health Science) Level 3 course, which is 1 year long, would this enable me to enrol onto the course at Cardiff University. The access course is offered by Coleg Gwent and states that the course is designed to 'give you opportunities to move onto a medical sciences degree (such as physiotherapy, paramedic science, radiography, pharmacy...)'.

Wow this is so great to hear how passionate you are!
I am a student here and love it! But because I am just a student here this is a hard one for me to answer to be honest, it sounds like a great idea and your commitment and passion will come across in your application very well.
But I will have to guide you to the admissions team on this one https://www.cardiff.ac.uk/help/contact-us/courses
Sorry to have to re-direct you, but they will be much more help, I wouldn't want to direct you in the wrong way otherwise.

Hope this helps and let me know how it goes.
