Law

Thanks to the OU’s one-to-ones and disability services, I barely felt the impact of my OCD. The materials, support, qualitative teaching, virtual learning environment platform and one-to-one support system are all state of the art.

I wanted to qualify as a lawyer for many years to 'give something back'. The Open University has given me the opportunity to study the LLB combined with growing a successful business.

Armed with my Open University degree, I have a desire to help others – to help the disadvantaged and the disenfranchised in life, as I once was.

My degree will help me in the legal industry, and will lead me to relevant jobs and further education in the future.

The OU has been brilliant in supporting me with my disability, to help me achieve success without being at a disadvantage.

The LLM in International Law has increased my confidence and given me new tools for supporting NGOs in the region, especially in marine conservation

I really like the fact that the OU encourages us to look at the law in innovative, non-traditional ways

Having at last found myself with the time and, thanks to The Open University, the opportunity to finally realise my lifelong ambition of studying law

I worked long hours before and after work to study, including travelling for tutorials about an hour away from my home.  I graduated in October this year with a first class honours.
