If you’re someone that didn’t quite get the best start in your school life, (dropped out of school, got into serious trouble for one reason or the other, had to take care of your kids as a teen parent, etc) but are still looking for a way to get a degree, try the Open University (or the ‘OU’ as they sometimes call themselves).
They allow complete remote study/distance learning and examinations in the first year, but do require you to attend centres during some examinations as your chosen course progresses (it’s homeworking for the most part of the course depending on how you apply specifically).
Try it out!👍
View moreThe Open University is a brilliant university. I’m in my final year of an Open Degree which I have tailored to become a BSc in Social Science. The course content has been top quality and up to date. My tutor have been supportive and readily available to answer any questions that I might have. My deadlines were clearly laid out at the beginning of each year, which means I can schedule my life and work around college and get ahead on any assignments that I need to. I highly recommend the Open University for anyone who is looking to get a degree but doesn’t have the time or money to dedicate to a traditional university.
View moreI studied Social Science with the OU over the course of 5 years during which time I lived in 3 different countries. My materials arrived at home and I had all the resources I needed including a very supportive tutor and classmates. There are handy chat rooms to discuss any issues you have and the course material is amazing in depth, I learned analytical skills that I use in daily life and this course changed the way I see the world around me – I will certainly take another course again in the future.
