At just 18 years old Zahra Alidina has completed her law degree with The Open University making her the youngest person ever to do so. The aspirational teenager has now set her sights on completing the bar exam, fulfilling a dream she’s had since visiting the Old Bailey as a child.

Speaking about her time with the University she expressed appreciation for the support she received from her tutors. Despite studying from home in Ealing, Zahra recalls how she never felt alone and met lots of fantastic people through her studies. She added:

“The Open University has given me an amazing head start in life as it allowed me to pursue my aims at an early age when no other institution could and has assisted in spearheading my career."

Congratulations to Zahra and we wish her every success in her future.
