Im going to be doing alevel chemistry through you guys while im doing alevel msths and biology at school :D

[@OpenStudyCollege]

This is great to hear! If you want any support in enrolling or throughout your studies, we’re always here to help 🙌

[@genniberri]

are you enjoying it?

[@DadThatCooks]

Please can you do a video regarding the QLS Level 3 course in Carpentry?

[@OpenStudyCollege]

Hi Gavin, we certainly can see what we can do! In the meantime if you've got any questions about our carpentry course, drop us a DM on any of our social media channels and we'd be happy to help!

Why are all your positive reviews on trust pilot about enrolling and absolutely no positive reviews whatsoever about your course materials or students who achieved success? Also why was I given the hard sell when I rang to find out about your service? There are some genuinely scary things being said about your service on Reddit…I almost spent £3000 with you- now I’m thoroughly put off. I couldn’t get a straight answer from your telesales girl about what happens if a student struggles with a course a few weeks in and what kind of support they would get….

[@OpenStudyCollege]

@@YesYouCanHomeEducate Hi, thanks for your comment. We're more than happy to discuss anything that you want to know! With the Trustpilot reviews, we do prompt people in our marketing activity to leave a review after they've enrolled with us, which is why we tend to get lots right after they've spoken to one of our advisers. We do get a few through when learners have started studying, but this is something we could look at prompting more in our email marketing etc, thank you for your feedback. We're sorry you felt like you were getting a 'hard sell' immediately after enquiring by phone, our advisers are genuinely there to answer questions and try to find the best course for you and your goals, so we're sorry if this came across the wrong way. Regarding what happens if a student struggles with their course, we have an academic team on hand to help with tutors and any academic requirements for the learner, and we have a learner services team who deal with any struggles learners may be experiencing. We have a 14 day cancellation period, so if you receive your materials and decide it's not for you, you have 14 days from when you got your materials to cancel and get a full refund. You will be assigned a personal tutor with your course who are there to contact via email throughout your studies for any help and advice, and they will also mark and give feedback on assignments. Online learning ultimately comes with more independence and proactivity, so it is up to the student to get in touch with their tutors if they need help, and also up to them to ensure they're handing in assignments so they can receive thorough feedback. We understand there are some negative discussions about us on Reddit, we are aware of it and it's of course really disappointing to read. Our learner services team do work extremely hard to deal with any complaints and queries from students. On the other hand, we have so many amazing success stories from our learners which genuinely inspire us, and remind us of how online learning as a tool can be life-changing for some. We really hope that helps, and please feel free to ask us any more questions!

@@YesYouCanHomeEducatehow are you finding it, I am looking to enrol but I too noticed that with the trust pilot reviews

[@jennig8014]

@@CZCRWz1 I didn’t go with them. I just didn’t feel confident. Too many alarm bells. I think we’ll use Oxford Homeschooling and NEC instead.

[@paradoxia3248]

Hi there, if i get the study pack do i still get access to the online resources?

[@OpenStudyCollege]

Hi, unfortunately you can only pick one of the options when you enrol. You can then pay an additional amount to also get access to the online materials. If you have any questions, please let us know! Thanks

[@emerldjewlsxox5705]

Hi do you have to sign to an a level course and get a tutor or can you just get the studying materials yourself and just book in for the exam.

[@OpenStudyCollege]

Hi, thanks for your comment! You will be assigned a personal tutor as standard with the cost of your course. They are there to contact by email throughout your studies, and there are also tutor-marked assignments to submit throughout the course before your exams to ensure you're ready for them! You will get studying materials as standard too, either online or in a physical study pack format. It's up to you how much of the resources you utilise. In theory, you could use the study materials, not submit your assignments (they don't contribute to your final grade), and simply book in for your exams. The tutor-marked assignments throughout our A Level courses have been created to give learners the opportunity to practice exam style questions. They aren’t mandatory, but we do strongly suggest they are completed to set you up in the bets way for your exams. However, like we say, you can utilise whichever resources you wish to. If you have any questions, please let us know! Thanks

[@rory5780]

Haha if you bought the book for 10 quid how would they charge 500 pounds for some shitty PowerPoint presentation copy and pasted from the specification

[@Beth20043]

How does the enrollment process work? I am from Northern Ireland in my first year of university and want to get an A level in English language with you as it will make me eligible for a fully funded transing course with Twach First after my degree.

[@OpenStudyCollege]

Hi! You can enrol anytime with one of our advisers over the phone or through our website. You would work your way through the online materials and submit assignments to your personal tutor throughout, and then sit your exams in-person in summer. You can either add on exams with us and we can book them for you at one of our partner centres, or you can book your exams yourself an an accredited centre. We do have a partner centre in Belfast for our English Language A Level learners. Please let us know if you have any further questions! Thanks 😊

[@KarenTong-vi2ye]

Hi,Do you write letters of recommendation? Will the teacher tell us how to apply for university?

[@OpenStudyCollege]

Hi, you will be assigned a personal tutor throughout your course who is there to support you with your studies. If you are wanting to get into university, you will need to submit an application through UCAS, and will need predicted grades to do this. In order for your personal tutor to give you predicted grades, you will have needed to finish your course assignments within plenty of time so they can sort this for you before the UCAS deadline. Hope that helps! Thanks

[@user-mp3kr8lv1m]

Hi. Considering that I'm not from the UK and I want to study for A levels online . Is there a possibility to do the studies for free and only pay for the exams taken in an examination centre in my country.

[@OpenStudyCollege]

Hi, thanks for your comment! Unfortunately you would have to pay for the course through us which would include all the learning materials and a personal tutor. You could then book and pay for your exams separately at an exam centre that suits you. Thanks 😊

[@user-mp3kr8lv1m]

Thanks this is really helpful

[@OpenStudyCollege]

@@user-mp3kr8lv1m If you don't want to pay through an online college like ourselves, you could always self-teach yourself the specifications and materials from free online resources without a tutor, and then just book your exams! It completely depends if you feel this would be possible for you. Thanks

[@randomz5889]

will there be live sessions

[@OpenStudyCollege]

Hi, our A Levels don’t include live sessions. You can either choose to receive your materials online, or as a study pack with physical materials/booklets. You would also be assigned a personal tutor throughout your studies who’s there to contact via email for any help, feedback or guidance. They will also mark your assignments throughout the course. If you have any further questions, please let us know ☺️

[@Isaagain]

Would the coursework be posted or sent through email?

[@OpenStudyCollege]

All our systems are online, so you would submit assignments electronically rather than posted. Thanks :)

[@ytchazz7038]

can i do just one a level online or do i have to take multiple?

[@OpenStudyCollege]

You can choose to do just one, or multiple! It's completely up to you 😊 If you have any further questions, please let us know!

[@HOUSEOFMEMES24]

Hello 👋 can I ask how much it is all together

[@OpenStudyCollege]

Hi! Of course, you can view all our A Level courses here: bit.ly/42zDUsf including their prices and price of adding on exams/practicals. If you have any questions, please let us know 😊

[@faatimahbax]

Hi, do you offer any BTEC courses?

[@OpenStudyCollege]

Hi, we only offer full A Levels. Thanks!

[@mustafasultan88]

Hii if i am from another country can i take online a level’s is there any requirement’s ? will universities around the world accept a levels !!

[@OpenStudyCollege]

Hi, thanks for your comment! You can take A Levels in another country online, as you would simply study the materials in an online format to learn the content. However, with the exams you would have to find an accredited centre to sit your exams to earn the A Level qualification. You would have to do some research into whether there are any centres to sit A Level exams in your country, or it ay be likely that you would have to travel to the UK to sit your exams here. The exams do have to be sat in-person. A Levels are widely accepted, definitely by every university in the UK, but we would recommend you checking university entry requirements in the country you would like to study. Thanks

[@mustafasultan88]

@@OpenStudyCollege thank you for the clear clarification i just had one more question when its late to start studying for online a levels ? It’s September right now and I haven’t started am i late or its not a big deal and i can catch up if i study in October/November thank uu again

[@OpenStudyCollege]

@@mustafasultan88 Hi, it depends when you would be aiming to do your exams! If you wanted to book in for May 2024, this may be a little tight, as you would have to study all the course content and complete all the assignments in 6 or so months. Aiming for the Summer 2025 exams may be more realistic to give you more time! However, it is completely down to the individual learner. Thanks

[@rory5780]

I could make the same website in about 30 minutes and easily replicate the courses by finding content online and linking it. How the fuck you charging so much? Even without exams or practicals biology is over £500, why the hell should I have to pay for this shit just because I am unable to go to school because of disability!

[@OpenStudyCollege]

Hi, as we are a privately funded education provider, we don't receive any funding and therefore have to charge for our courses, taking into account our costs. Included in the price of our courses is an assigned personal tutor, providing expert support and feedback throughout the learner's studies. We hope you can see how this support is different to someone studying completely independently. We understand if someone wanted to collate all the information themselves and study solo, rather than through a company, this is completely valid! It would of course take more time to do this, rather than having all the materials and tutor support provided for you. We completely understand that purchasing a course is a big investment, it's not for everyone and we don't expect online studying to suit everyone and their needs. There are other funded options for learners to choose. Thanks

The way you keep moving your hands is annoying

[@OpenStudyCollege]

Oh no, we're so sorry this annoyed you!
