I Want a Career, They Want a Diploma.

Hey. I'm really pissed off.
After deciding to defer my entry to Uni for a year, I decided to apply to college to get a Makeup Artiste diploma. However, the course is oversubscribed due to all the townie girls in my area having no career ambitions and applying for a course in makeup so they can get out of working for a year. They want a year of slacking, I want a career...
I'm gonna write a cover letter to the college explaining my need to attend the course, and that I've applied to Uni for the following year, in the hopes of having a career in this particular field...
What chances do you think I'll be picked over the other girls?
I will have 3 AS's and 2 A levels, whereas most of them will just have GCSE's...

And if you do want a career as a make up artist, why do you need to go to university afterwards?
I'm not trying to be mean, but how do you know these girls have no career ambitions and just want to do the course to get out of working? If they were that lazy they would just sit on the dole. I think you should not be so judgemental.
And, by having a diploma in makeup artistry, I'd have more experience in the field. This could make me stand out more from other applicants for the same course.
I'm not being judgmental about it... I phoned the college admissions office to enquire about the course, and that is what they told me about most of the girls that apply...

What's wrong with getting a diploma then going to uni? It's not like I'm taking anything away from anyone, I'm just doing what I can, to get necessary experience.

What is the course you want to do at uni?
