i need advice on university.

im 17, nearly 18, in my last year of 6th form college, im studying maths, physics, graphics with materials A levels, AS level art and have an AS in media studies. at school my strongest and favourite subject was english, especially creative writing. i have always been a creative person but because of a moment of madness influenced by other people telling me what i should do i chose all these academic subjects. i have managed to claw some creativity back with the art, graphics and media studies but my first love has always been writing.
it is getting close to the application deadline for university and i was wondering if i could be accepted onto an english, creative writing, or journalism course or any course involving media or writing, without an A level in english. its a long shot but its something i will regret for the rest o my life if i do not try, any suggestions??

WoWoWo, you are an amazing 17year for knowing exactly wat you want and holding your head up to ask for advice!your a credit!!!I dont know much about the education system in the UK but I’m sure you can repeat exams. I did my final exams and went travelling over here!!! Im 23 now goin to college, best thing I ever did. why dont you do a Post college course in writing skills to get into that course. I do know that any course you do over here are acknowledged in Uk so its also an option to try something in Ireland. Im just giving you some ideas. I’m sure they have the same sort of thing over in UK. I also know that we are quete lucky to have one of the best educations systems around so it really would stand to you and your on a 20pound flight away from home!!!hope this helps
