so entry requirements for York Nottingham Southampton
abb
following on from getting a good epq result

predicted grades have been aaa

bur course work and mocks been coming in at a stars
so I wouldn’t be suprised if this dc achieves 3 a stars

so what unis should we be looking at to upgrade to during clearing if this is a the case

dc not interested in Warwick or oxbridge

so would places like Edinburgh, Leeds etc have places in clearing or will they all be full already ?
what else is worth looking at through clearing ?
any other unis this dc should be looking at during clearing time ?

Doesn't Bath split the placement year between year 2 and year 3, therefore a six month one would be okay? Or is / was that only for Architecture? (Or am I completely misremembering- DS2 looked at several universities for Architecture originally, than promptly changed his mind and decided to study something not offered by all of the places he'd already considered).

But yes re the unpaid part, so either not aimed at UK undergraduates, or in ignorance (or defiance?) of the rules here?

Can confirm about Bath Architecture, placements must be for at least 3 months each in years 2 & 3 and must pay nmw or above.
Tuition fees in year 3 are reduced to £1800.
I think there are other Bath courses with the same thin sandwich structure.
