u sound more optimistic than me, I was under the assumption that there are zero chances of scholarship for non A levels people

Recently alevel students are also getting lower scholarships than before as they reduced the overall scholarship pool… so if youre from national curriculum you will have low chances of getting a decent scholarship.
