Papa Manual Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 hsas anyone had anywork from UWE yet? its the only one i actually want to go to and its the only one that havent written to me hahaUWE declined me at first, but I blagged and now have a conditional. Southampton told me to f**k off, but I suspected they would especially considering the qualification I'm entering with isn't on UCAS' mega-list. Waiting on Ports, Herts and Keele. C'mon Keele, you know you want me baby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sobek Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 anyone know anything about the open university? good or avoid?would like to get a degree by long distance learning but not sure how legit it will be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papa Manual Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 Open Uni degrees are pretty much as well recognised as any other degree I think.My applications are all going to shit. UWE have f**ked up. They seem to think the whole time that I’ve been talking about the CERTIFICATE I’m taking, that I was on about the Diploma. If I had completed the Diploma it would give me access to a f**king masters degree. Why on earth would I be trying to get into an undergraduate degree with it!? More blaggage has ensued.

1a2bcio8 Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 anyone know anything about the open university? good or avoid?would like to get a degree by long distance learning but not sure how legit it will be.My ex-girlfriend did two years of an open university degree in general science/envinronmental science but gave it up because her work offered to pay for her to do a masters degree. She really enjoyed it, especially as she liked learning about science. I believe that it's a readily accepted degree - perhaps not quite to the extent of a 'normal' degree but not so much that it really matters. The reason she began studying it was to change career paths though, so I'm sure it had worth. She wouldn't have done it otherwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sobek Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 it seems to be the only university in England i can find which offers distance learning.want to obtain a degree whilst staying and working in China...as i have a nice salary for easy work with a 16 hours a week workload.

I just looked at the type of degree you gain and it seems to be the same as one you would get studying 'in' a university. How quickly can you study the degree though? Can it be done full time or in three years? My ex was doing over six years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 My Mum did one, it took her 7 years but she was working full time aswell, so it looks really good on her CV.Universities and employers usually really like OU degrees because they are so much more about managing your own work load etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sobek Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 i also read...i think it depends how much time you want to devote to it. you could do it in 4 years but that would be full time, and 6 years if you do it as a part time course. the part time would be more suitable for me.thinking into getting a degree in early childhood education or maybe business..little bit at a cross road these days.
