Is there college/university in the UK in a remote way?

I'm currently struggling to finish a degree at the moment. There are a bunch of college/university in the world. I have no friends - friends make me have a lively life. I'm an Art major with already 120 credits. I studied many aspects besides art. While time difference, I thought I could look for online college/university in the UK. I'm not sure if my credits could be transferred. I'm on Japan campus in Tokyo. Thanks in advance.

Hi @Hardest Job. I am sorry to hear how difficult this must be for you! Completing a degree can be very hard itself and completing it without any assistance is even more difficult. Remember that you already have attained 120 credits so that's a very big achievement. If you are thinking about studying online with a UK university then I am pleased to tell you that many universities do offer distance learning degrees that you can do from abroad, particularly ones that are flexible and part time too that let you study online. When referring to your credit transfer then universities will decide if this counts or not but to do this then you will need to contact admissions and have this conversation with them. I hope this helped and good luck! 😀

Hi. It's hard for a student to study many sorts of subjects unless they concentrate on it. There are many universities which offer distance learning now. 'University of Bradford' must be one of those. Thanks very much. I'm finishing up.
