Hi I am very interested in doing some free courses in the 'Childhood & Youth' topics but I was wondering, do you know if it will effect me as I start a course in February and i know when going through the financial support application they ask if you are a first time learner at the Open uni. I wouldn't want a short course to affect my application as the degree is obviously main priority. Thanks in advance.

I don't think it will affect you as some of the free units are based on actual modules for the relevant course. I would apply as a first time learner as normal.

i am shocked at that statement too, nurses are trained at university level nowadays, and certainly wouldn't be eligable for enterence with a "d" grade.

So they are trained at university level but don't know how to spell eligible or entrance, or that I is supposed to be a capital letter?
