Can I switch to MPharm (4-year) at Brighton if I get high grades in my Access course?

Hi everyone,

I’ve been offered a place to study Pharmacy with a foundation year (5-year course) at the University of Brighton, but I was rejected from the standard 4-year MPharm course.

Right now, I’m doing an Access to HE course , and I’m on track to get higher grades than Brighton's entry requirements for the MPharm.

I’m wondering:
If I get really good grades in my Access course, is there a chance I could switch to the standard 4-year MPharm course this year, instead of starting with the foundation year?

Has anyone done this before or had experience with it?
Should I contact admissions and ask to be reconsidered for direct entry?

Any advice would be really appreciated , thanks!
