I've been considering applying to the Astrophoria foundation year, and was wondering if anyone would be willing to share their experience applying? I'm really worried because I'd be applying whilst on a gap year, so I have achieved grades, and I'd be doing it on my own, especially because my whole family actively opposes me going to uni at all, so I don't really know what is going on. I don't know if applying with achieved grades would disqualify me from applying, as well as the fact I did apply and had an Oxford offer last year, but missed it. I am eligible based on what I can tell from the website, but I don't know if I'm as affected by the criteria as I should be, if you know what I mean? Like I feel like even though I'd technically meet the criteria, I don't know if I'd deserve to apply because I don't actively think about how much the things I'm eligible for actually impact me? I mean, I think they might have but I don't know for certain yk? Ik this isn't something anyone can determine based on what I write here, but I was wondering if anyone else has applied / is applying with similar concerns and what the process involves. Thank you
