Open University

I am sorry If this is the wrong forum but I was thinking of doing a degree at the OU, I was looking at their website but it is a bit confusing.

At the moment I am unemployed but I have A Levels and have been to uni once before but I only did 2 years.

I am just wondering does anyone know about getting funding for a course on it and how much a course is?

Try asking on the Student discussion area.

I think a lot depends on when you last went to university and under what fee system.
If you ring their finance team I'm sure that they will be able to help you further.

I believe the funding has recently changed for OU courses in that they are now the same cost as a regular uni course and funded in the same way (loans).
You can always check on their website which is quite informative or give them a call - they are usually very helpful.

I was looking at their site recently and I read that you can get a loan to cover your fees as is standard with normal unis but it also said that if you've already completed a BA (or similar) course you cannot get more funding.

Though if you only did 2 years you won't have completed, so it may be confusing. Certainly the best way forward is to ring them and ask.
