My son is considering applying for the flying start degree - if he is made an offer and misses his grade is he likely to still get on this course? If not is he likely to be offered a place on the Non PWC version of this degree - Accounting and finance. He is also considering the Accounting and finance degree at Liverpool uni who said at the open day they prefer to accept those who drop a grade than fill up their course through clearing. I wondered if Newcastle are the same. Does anyone know?
