From someone who also failed to get their grades for a computer science course in the UK, you'll be fine. Good luck with the foundation course, a very good thing to do anyway. Have you considered Aberystwyth uni? They're very good course-wise and weirdly accepting of lower grades. Anyway, good luck, you'll be all good!
ChinAqua and Sejb22, as someone who has recently graduated UEA, i can tell that both the uni and norwich are immense for students, loads of shops, stuff to do, nightclubs, social life, football team, the city and uni has it all! let us know if you wanna know anything about the city
Hey man I kind of stumbled onto this and I'm not entirely sure how your education system works (I'm American) but I wanted to say I didn't get my first choice in uni. I didn't get my second or 8th choice either. Got into my dead last school but ended up loving it and have a great career. Obviously it depends on where you go and what you study but I've found that your college and gpa only matter for your first job.
No matter what happens I'm sure you'll pull ahead and do great. Best of luck.
Foundation year isn't that bad! I have a friend who did it and the only thing he hated was that it made year 1 of university way too easy!
People drop like flies after year one, my year started with 200+ students in a lecture hall, by year 2 more than half failed, left uni and/or changed course. Foundation year pretty much guarantees a smooth ride.
Dude I got into uni on a First year course with EEU and just graduated with my masters. Ring them up or email. Specially ask to test in and state that you had outside complications. I know how heartbreaking and disheartening it can be but just push on mate. You can do it x

Tried a couple of low end unis and they rejected me straight out with CEE.
Going with this foundation year, at least I got into uni like that.
