Hi @rayyan_rayyy

One of the main advantages of a degree apprenticeship is that you will get paid and your degree will be paid for whereas if you go to university then you have to pay for it.

The way you apply will likely be different, as if you are applying to university then you apply through UCAS, however if you are applying for an apprenticeship you will normally have to apply directly to the employer.

I would recommend researching the specific degree apprenticeships that you are interested in to find out more details. For example, you could research what the work / study time split is.

Hope that helps!
