Getting into Uni with low grades

I haven’t been in the education system for a little while now, and never considered University because, not only was it not an affordable option but, I got passing but pretty low grades in my A-Levels.
What universities might accept someone with low grades that you can also study online with??

The OU doesn't have formal entry requirements and is all online distance learning (plus somewhat cheaper than brick unis for tuition fees) so might be a good option

Note though while you can get a tuition fee loan while studying at the OU, you usually can't get a maintenance loan (this is true of any distance learning course I believe).

I study with the OU, and if you live in England, you’re not eligible for a maintenance loan (if you have a disability, then you’d of course be eligible for DSA providing you provide evidence). I know with Wales you can get a maintenance loan, can’t remember if you’re able to get maintenance if you’re in Scotland or Ireland - it’s something OP would need to look into if they’re based in Scotland or Ireland

Ah interesting -didn't know it was different for England!

I didn’t know until I was in the process of applying for SFE funding and was like oh :/. However you are allowed to claim money back from the uni for buying a laptop/computer and stationary stuff which isn’t huge but it’s something

I do remember seeing that - I think also in certain cases they might reimburse some costs of an Internet connection? I never ended up trying to claim anything in that vein from them when I wad with the OU (I wad working at a university at the time and the amount if stationery that would get put out with a "free to take" sign meant I didn't have to pay for paper or folders or anything for like a year after I stopped )
