Oh okay thanks!! I've got in contact with my local college and they have said because I've not got very good gcse's I am going to have to start at the very bottom! No ideal but its a step in the right direction!! I was really wanting to do a course at ou for the convenience of being able to do it from home because of my lo but nevermind.

Well, I decided that Id like to study psychology. The course doesnt start til sept 12 though, so the fees are a lot higher 
Their financial support system is also changing and theyre accepting the government student loan. So im not sure if anyone is exempt from course fees now, if i had studied earlier i would have been. Hmmm.
I dont want a student loan, i already have one ftom the one yr of uni i did.
Course registration is 27th March, so i shall see

Anyone know whether I can study two modules at the same time?? I'll nearly have my 120 credits come September and then I need to apparently study a module in September to keep the low fees (or so they've said via emai) meaning NO break BUT, most of my modules are an Oct/Sept start.... I've planned to do one in Feb 2013 as well which means then I'll have 240 credits by September 2013 (if I pass!) so only have another 120 to go... but like I said they're all september starts - is it possible to do the two modules at the same time?

Hi everyone can I join? I enrolled on an open degree pathway today 
, I start 'AA100 The arts past and present' this October 
I was originally going to go Bristol uni but thinking it through with childcare costs and travel costs it would have been too much so I decided this was my best option.
Does anyone know why you can only do 60 credits in the first year? I really want to do more as I don't want to drag the course on to 4 years.

How are you finding it?
I hope your tutor gets back to you soon
have you left them a message so at least if they get back to you late they'll be able to see you did ask before the deadline was due and hopefully it should be okay

Yes i sent her an email, it doesn't look like she will be getting back to me i want to email her again, but i'm struggling to find the words without looking pushy 
and naggy! it has to be in lunch time tomorrow
I am finding it enjoyable, it is hugely varied though, but that was expected, and now i am towards the end tbh i just want it over so i can do modules solely in history, for example the assignment i am currently struggling with is on classical studies, i am writing about the Greek play Antigone, i enjoyed the assignments on Cleopatra and the Tudors, but not so much the assignments on Art history or this one on classics
