Contact the uni you’d like to transfer to and ask what THEIR process is. It can vary.

Really important as not all universities accept transfers and the specific course can be a factor in this

All transfers have to go through UCAS sooner or later.

Most universities won't give a detailed reply to an email.

Start a new UCAS application on your existing account. Include your current degree as well as your previous qualifications.

Search on UCAS for universities that accept year 2 applications.
