Full time study at the OU

Has anyone studied full time at the OU? What has your experience been? Is it difficult to study 120 credits a year? I haven’t been in education since secondary school and I’m now 20, what do you advise in regards to preparing myself?
I’m starting the Diploma of Higher Education in Psychology part time and I’ve enrolled onto E102 (Introduction to childhood studies and child psychology). Has anyone done this module? Is it worth choosing? Sorry for so many questions, I just haven’t studied for a long time and I’m sort of panicking! Any advice would be greatly appreciated😀

I've done a year full time on a different degree, whilst working full time and it's challenging but you can manage it if you stick to the deadlines or try to be a week or 2 ahead it's achievable

Hi there,

I apologise for interrupting this thread! I’m looking to do a full time degree with the OU while working full time. Am I able to gain Full time tuition funding? I’m unsure if I am able to get full time tuition, only part-time. Thanks in advance!
