Student review [#18546]
for Arts and Humanities
at Open University - OU
Milton Keynes, The United Kingdom
The OU is a very flexible university that allows you to tailor your degree to suit your life circumstances. I feel very lucky to be able to do this, and to choose modules that best suit me from a variety of different subject areas. Because I am able to do that, I found that it enabled me to discover my interests far better than a brick uni degree would have done. I have found most of my modules excellently put together, and my tutors extremely helpful and supportive.
For me, working remotely suits me perfectly, but I can see that for some people it wouldn’t be ideal. Sometimes it’s also rather difficult to engage socially with fellow students, but especially in later years, communities of students are easier to find and engage with.
Overall, my experience with the OU has been massively positive.
