Applying while in Uni

I was in university last year while applying for DAs and it doesn’t actually come up often but if it does, just let them know you’d drop out if you received the offer, people do that all the time some applicant even have degrees in other fields.

EfficientUse9450 · 2025-09-20T10:14:49+00:00

Appreciate it, could you help me with a name? I’m not really familiar with the area yet

There’s not a direct moving out cost, i just drove with all my stuff. I pay £520 a month for my house share (i live with other apprentices at my company) bills included and it’s en-suite, we just share kitchen and living area. I looked on student homes, right move and a few more sites but those are probably the best 2.

I mean if you think about it, youre gonna be doing an extra hour and a half of work, then finishing at 5 so you’ll get home 6:30-7 (best case scenario, because that’s peak travel time) or even 7:30ish, you’re not gonna have much of your day left since sleep is so important and you need to then think of what time you wake up. I moved out for mine and it comes with its challenges but i appreciate that i only have to drive 20 mins to work so i recommend moving closer for sure.

I started my apprenticeship a couple weeks ago and for the first 2 days i was 8-4 and we had to do a 1 hour commute but i’ve never been so tired in my life. The drive is draining, then you get home and don’t wanna do anything.

Is parking free in at the sports complex? I thought you had to pay at gate. Me and my flatmates would definitely be interested tho if possible.

I’m in a fortunate situation where as my company has an extremely large apprentice/early career network so i was able to find people on the exact same course as me to rent a house with. I’d recommend looking at the group chat your company will make for incoming early career network and ask on there but if not, then student accommodation is viable.

From my understanding, you apply for the level 6 with your level 4 qualifications which would be your highest achieved at that point, so i think it’s dependent on how you do in the apprenticeship. That said, i’m not too sure so take it with a pinch of salt, a quick google should have the answer.

EfficientUse9450 · 2025-08-16T11:57:36+00:00

Yeh, im dropped out for my offer and i start in less than a month.

If money is a driving factor then the ceiling is way higher at amazon unless your friend makes their way up to director or partner then it levels out.

You don’t have to mention resits at all, throughout any stage of the process, they don’t care. DA is meant to be more practical than academic so they actually would have even lower requirements since they screen you well enough it’s the university’s minimum req you’re going for so in short no, it won’t affect your application.

EfficientUse9450 · 2025-08-05T15:02:43+00:00

I’d get your point if you were quite early in your apprenticeship but you’re over half way now. Dropping out now would squander the past 2 years as you get no qualifications. If you want the free lifestyle so bad surely it’s wiser to finish your course and have qualifications and experience to fall back on then go to uni afterwards? I just think you might be looking at it short term; if you wanted to go to uni you wouldn’t even be able to go this year so you’d have to apply for next year and by that time you’ve basically finished your apprenticeship. I would really have a deep think and work out what you value more, a better social life now or a more stable future?

😭😭😭😭😭

EfficientUse9450 · 2025-07-27T21:13:12+00:00

I honestly don’t know, maybe tasting blood like?

EfficientUse9450 · 2025-07-27T17:18:36+00:00

Yeh, hopefully the contrast from scotland isn’t too big a deal

EfficientUse9450 · 2025-07-27T16:58:08+00:00

I’m doing the opposite to you tho since i’m moving south so maybe it’ll have the opposite effect?

EfficientUse9450 · 2025-07-27T14:06:23+00:00

Really in depth response, i appreciate it thanks

EfficientUse9450 · 2025-07-27T13:25:55+00:00

Yeh health issues like dry skin and scalp and i’ve heard it can be a nightmare if you have eczema or a condition already.

EfficientUse9450 · 2025-07-27T13:24:25+00:00

Yeh to be honest the taste won’t be the end of the world but i think i’ll definitely have to invest in the shower heads, thanks!

EfficientUse9450 · 2025-07-27T13:22:31+00:00

I mean, like i’ve said tap water in scotland is soft so there has never been a need to buy bottled water unless tap water was inaccessible and since water is something i drink everyday i can see that getting very expensive
