Only will cost a couple of quid on a UCAS form and 3 choice slots). Depending on where I am in September this year, I'll be re-applying to do the Access course for Sept 2013, yeah, and hopefully get into 2014 entry for uni. When I'm 21 going on 22... lol.
Manchester is fantastic! Not an alumnus myself, but I wish I were. Such a fantastic university and with a lot of the amenities of an Oxbridge college

Anyway I'm replying because 21 going on 22 is not old. I just finished a degree at 23 (oh, so old!) where all my classmates were two-three years younger. It was hard to make friends sometimes, but it the extra maturity made the course a lot easier.
