Switching courses

Hi! I’ve gotten a place at ucl for history politics and economics for AAA, but I didn’t realise how focused on Eastern Europe it was, so I was wondering if it is possible to switch courses to History and politics of the Americas which has a lower offer of AAB, should I call admissions and ask or is there anything I could do?

Phone Admissions and ask.

Hello, I switched courses from CS to English, they respond in a pretty timely fashion and there is no time like the present so go for it! :smile:
They directed me to their online enquiry form for undergraduate applications but phoning them is the best place to start in my opinion.

It's not focused on Eastern Europe. The Economics and Politics is general, and the History has modules relating to Eastern Europe, however there are plenty of optional modules that even out and make it quite far-reaching! My brother has the same offer and we spoke to a 2nd year student 2 days ago that explained all of this to us.
