    Hi,

    Have done a bit of searching and couldn't find anything definitively relevant, so thought I would just ask you guys to see could anyone steer me the right way!

    I currently have a level 7 degree in business and management, and have been accepted onto a level 8 digital business add on year, but my heart is set on transitioning to psychology.

    Problem is, all the conversion courses I can find have a level 8 undergraduate degree as a prerequisite. I could do another year to get my level 8 in business, but, being 25 and having had spent years already doing something I now realise was unsuitable, another year seems like wasted time (not to mention cost).

    Would anyone know of any way around this situation, or is it a case where I have to suck it up and just do another year of business first?

    Would really appreciate some insight!

    I would suggest finishing your degree and then doing the conversion as your only other option would be to start again with a new degree. You are only 25, plenty of time! I went back as a mature student myself and didn't find the time passing. I am also looking at further study in a new field but having an initial degree in anything behind you will stand to you. My heart wasn't in my degree either.
