Open university question?

[Crawling]

Can you get grants and student loans to pay the fees? If so can anyone point me to a link that shows information this so I can work out if we can finanicially afford this?

I was going to go to study September but I am unexpectedly pg and I cant afford to wait another two years to start studying so thought this may be a option otherwise we wont be able to afford me being out of work.

Hope this helps :)

Thanks both that is very helpful and from what I can see OU may be better for me anyway
