I haven't personally, but i've seen many people study with top universities after studying with the OU.

An OU degree is regarded just as highly as a degree from any other university.

Open University

People are accepted at Oxford and Cambridge with OU degrees, though obviously infrequently. If you have decent grades and reasonable references you shouldn't have too much problem being accepted by Kent, though obviously it depends on how competitive any given course is.

Hi, I have just finished my degree with OU (maths & stats) and I received a conditional offer from Leicester uni to start a Msc in actuarial science. One of my OU tutors is a lecturer at Oxford in the maths department and she also had a degree with OU then went on to do Msc and Phd at Oxford.

Hope that helps :smile:
