What can I do with 45 OU points?

[aleene]

I have done 4 OU short courses. Problem is I can't really afford to do anymore at the moment. I don't want them to go to waste but I'm kind of stuck with what to do with them. How long do the points stay valid for and any ideas what I should do next?

Could you scrape enough money to do another couple of courses to get a certificate or HNC? It's just that OU fees are going up very much soon but if you register soon you may be able to do 60 points a year for £700 rather than £2,500 or so that it wil soon cost. I agree, also check if you are eligable for loans/grants from OU. Could you manage to pay monthly by OUSBA?
