Can I change my university course after 1st year?
You’ll need to discuss your new course choice with the course tutor to make sure it’s appropriate for you. You may also need to attend a formal interview. When can you transfer?

What happens if you pick the wrong course or university?
Of likely outcomes, the worst-case scenario of having picked the wrong course or university (or both) is that you end up needing to take a year out before returning to a different course or university next September, and the associated additional costs in fees and accommodation.
What to do if you’re not happy with your University?
The most obvious one is that if it turns out it really is the university that you’re not happy with, you can look into transferring to a different university. In the UK, this will almost always mean taking a year out and reapplying, barring a very lucky quirk of term timing and spaces on your preferred course.
