Student review [#103355] for History and Politics
at The Open University - OU

I have nothing but positive things to say about my experiences with The Open University. For some reason at the age of 30, while working full time and having never been a good student before in my life, I decided to do a degree for six years. It sounded ridiculous then and it does recounting it now! I was worried, naturally – I thought that it would be difficult, that I would drop out, etc, but the OU were there for me every step of the way and made the whole journey not only a breeze but a genuine joy too.

I personally found working online suited the way that my mind works but if you fancy more in-person learning then the OU does also offer that too – I attended a good few lectures like at a “regular” university, so fret not!

I would recommend The Open University to absolutely everybody – you will be supported and inspired throughout this exciting new educational journey.
