Applying to The Open University 📮

hi!!
I wanted to film a video of me going through the application process to the open university as I felt it may help some people who are considering applying!
I’m more than happy to answer questions in the comments or you can message me privately through instagram: @annawith2hs :)
If I can’t answer your queries, maybe you’ll find an answer on the OU website: www.open.ac.uk
But if you are applying or have applied, good luck, you got this!!

I decided to get the engineering route, I have yet to be contacted by the Uni for payment. You are so lucky to have the SAS to help you pay for it!

Hello, I am studying business administration at the Arab Open University, and I will get a double degree from the Open University in Britain. I want to know if graduates can work in Britain like any university, or because it is an open university, it is difficult to find jobs?

Hi everyone I would just love to be a student again but I think the open university would really Suit me better

[@alicepearson5218]

I'm applying for my funding now and this has helped massively - Thank you! When you filled out the registration agreement, under paying your module fee, what did you put? I have filled out the SASS forms to send with the agreement but don't have a 11 digit CRN or any other code to prove that i've applied for SASS funding. Do i just leave it blank? Thanks!

[@hannahlorna]

If this is your first time applying you won’t have one, but after applying you will get a CRN. So I would leave it blank, but if there is any problems they’ll contact you so don’t stress! :)

[@hannahlorna]

Let me know how you get on!

[@TimBlackwood]

How much does it cost?

[@AbsoluteReiki]

Where u get the form for PT saas? OU send or u print via SAAS website

[@hannahlorna]

You can download and then print the PTFG SAAS form!

Hi, I love your enthusiasm for studying... I want to study Law at OU but am from Scotland. 1) Where will I write the exams at ? 2) Will I have to come for lectures at OU in England ? Thanks...

[@hannahlorna]

Hey! Thank you so much 😌 You should definitely look into the descriptions of the modules you are considering on the OU website as courses vary in the way they are organised!

[@illusion8631]

Hello I just have a question, is it possible to transfer to a normal university after a year? (120 credits)

[@illusion8631]

And can you do 120 credits as part time ? Or 60 credit only

[@A-in8zu]

What is the education requirement to apply in this university?!

[@hannahlorna]

There are no educational requirements!

[@hayleycaven7008]

Did you have the option to do this online also? I applied for SAAS online via the OU website after I registered- and I'm wondering if this was a mistake as I have not been asked for any income evidence yet

[@hannahlorna]

Saas does usually take around 2 weeks to get in touch with you, but if it has been a couple of weeks since you registered, I would maybe email or give them a call to ask! It’ll be peace of mind for you too

[@hayleycaven7008]

@@hannahlorna ahhh ok, thank you so much for your speedy reply! I'll give them a call 😊 Ps, finding your OU vids super inspiring as I'm nervously taking steps towards my very first degree!

[@hannahlorna]

@@hayleycaven7008 you’ll absolutely smash it, just keep thinking about what you can achieve! 💫

[@tinafraser2086]

[@hannahlorna]

Hey! Yes of course, if you have Instagram send me a message ☺️ my Instagram is annawith2hs

[@airiantophus6385]

Hello! I just sent you a follow request on IG. I'm applying for OU this year and I'm confused about which form I should send (PN1 or PTL1). Sorry, I'm in England, so not sure if it's the same ones you have, but if you could help, I would be forever thankful!

[@hannahlorna]

@@airiantophus6385 hello! I’m so sorry for only seeing your comment now! I hope you got on okay?

Just make sure ur laptop uses Windows 10 64 bit

[@tinafraser2086]

Hey , i have applied to do forensic psychology and i picked my first module (60 credits) there was another module within stage 1 and was just wondering is that what i would be doing in my second year or do they change it up? The way i understood it to be is 2 modules per stage so 6 in total, so my stage 1 will take 2 years then move to stage 3 and so on. I am just getting so confused when picking modules for part-time study. Can you explain how it works? I only plan on doing 60 credits per year. Thank you x

[@hannahlorna]

@@tinafraser2086 hi I’m so sorry for only seeing your comment now! But you are absolutely spot-on! You’ll do 60 credits every year over 6 years, that is part-time study 😊

[@alinamargaryan6181]

How much it costs ? And how can i get a scholarship ?

[@hannahlorna]

There are different prices for different circumstances, so i would suggest you look at the Open University website, and you’ll also be able to find information on there about sponsorships! 😊

[@sajjadahmed7969]

Can you get Maintenance Loan for OU??

[@knightofwandss]

Essentially no unless you are notably disabled in a way that affects such things
