I'm looking at studying for a degree with the OU. I looked up the fees and I think I would potentially qualify for funding.
I do work 4 days a week with a long commute and have two kids, one at primary school and the other is just two.
Would it be doable? I don't really get a lot of spare time (hardly ever) and usually once the kids are in bed I'm too knackered to do anything. OU expects around 16-18 hours study per week for a p/t course.
Can it be be done? My commute is in the car so I can't read materials in my journey to/from work. I'm out of the house for 8am.
Also I have a mortgage. What funding would I receive if I worked around my job? If this isn't doable now, I'll have to look into it when the youngest goes to school.
TIA
