The Open University - OU Speciality : Sociology
programme: BA (hons) Social Sciences

The open university is a great option for someone who needs flexibility. It allows part time, entirely flexible work which is entirely dependant on the individual and works around the individual. It allows people to prioritise other things, like work and family and still be able to pursue a degree in a career they feel passionate about. Another key thing about the open university is the fact you don’t need any qualifications to enroll this allows people to access university regardless of their past and allows a really inclusive feel. My only criticism which isn’t really a criticism is that you need to be self motivated, this is a really important thing to consider before enrolling due to the very independent nature of this university. Overall, i have had a very positive experience thus far.
