The Open University - OU (reviews)

As an individual who couldn’t have attended an in person university and instead applied to the Open University right after finishing sixth form, I found that it is an excellent option to provide freedom for selecting ones study areas, as well as boasting incredible tutors and resources that put the tools wholly in the students’ hands.
The nature of a university that relies on the students to manage themselves can pose as a challenge, and did for me for a long time, however I found that over time it pushed me to develop better a work ethic and mentality surrounding productivity.
Also, I have found that during my courses, my tutors have been incredibly supportive at any point in which I’ve sought out assistance.

Great if you work and need a further qualification, study at your own pace take as long as needed to finish the course, great choices of courses to suit everybody, You can start at any level and move your way up to a PHD even!!

Decided to get my degree later in life, have completed my first year and have been so pleased with my experience so far. My lecturer was amazing and the uni as a whole is just so helpful; an all round positive experience which has been great as I was very nervous about going back to school after so many years!

I have completed my first year and now into my second and I would say I have had a good experience so far with tutors and materials provided. The tutors tend to be very engaging in my experience and knowledgable.
