I want to take my degree but with part time studies as i'm not a kid anymore and i've my full time job. |
i realised that years go quickly and by now i should have done smth more than just working.i like architecture,medicine,arts.whe... do i start from?when should i apply?is it already too late?i heard about portfolios,foundation years,...but i really don't know anything about how schools work here in England.i am quite a lazy person unfortunatelly,but people say very intuitive.i think i have to do it,but i need some advices from some of you who know how it goes.i was going to study painting or photography this year but i realised that it was just a choice made because many people do it and it seems pretty easy.please help!thanks a bunch:)! I have been studying with the Open University for the last five years and would definitely recommend it. I've been able to combine part-time study with my full-time job, pay module-to-module (grants are also available) and in a couple more years, will have a professional BA Hons degree. The only setbacks I can think of are the fact that you do need to be quite self-motivated and able to get on with work alone, although some units organise tutorials and seminars you can attend. A good place to start might be a Level 1 Unit called 'Introduction to the Humanities'. It gives you an overview which can help you determine which subject areas interest you most, and includes art history. I studied it and loved it! Check out www.open.ac.uk. You can also get help about choosing what is right for you. painting and photography are not easy. you have to be really talented, and have a lot of motivation ... why don't you try going to school that is related to the job you have ... that could be good, because after you get a degree, you'll have some valuable work experience too, so it will be easier to get a good job, and you won't have to start from a scratch ... AND! it's never too late! Hi! A lot of this depends on where in the UK you live. A great option wherever you live is the Open University-the courses are designed for people with jobs or studying elsewhere. Check out www.open.ac.uk for a full course list and info on applying. The courses start at different times of year, though the majority start in spring so the deadline for applying tends to be in fall, but this isn't the case for all of them so just have a browse! Alternatively, contact your nearest universities. If you live in London, the University of Westminster and University of East London have extensive part-time study options, but most universities have courses specifically for part-time students. Depending on the subjects you are interested, contact universities that offer those courses and ask them about part-time study options. However I really do recommend Open University...I've done two courses while still at school, in Music and Philosophy, and my dad's done several Maths and Engineering courses alongside work, and we both did really well and it was fun, and the best bit is you can decide when you study, as long as you meet assignment deadlines. And they offer SO many different courses! Good luck! it is will be difficult to chose if you self still confuse about your future, just decided by your self, what do you like? what do you want for your future? if you ask everybody in this forum they will have different opinion and that will make you more confuse.. so the best thing is think with your heart, and your thought(head) not just by your emotion, because it will ruin everything and you will get bore so fast. Just decide it first, what do you like most? then check the job field for that, and then check for the scholl cost.. Iam not live at england so sorry i don't know how it goes in england. good luck The best place to look is on ucas.co.uk that deals with all higher education courses and you can usually apply on line as well. Try the open university,they have a wide selection of certificates, diplomas,and degrees and flexible degrees, that are highly sought after qualifications. They are tailored for people just like you. Also if u earn under 25 grand you may qualify to get your fees paid or funding .You study from home aswell, part time with oppitional tutorials once a fortnight. i am currently studying with them and find them great. as it is easy to fit studying into your own lifestyle, as u can study any time you want as long as u meet the deadlines :) ps its never to late i am 26 and was one of the youngest, with the age ranging from 18 up to 55 and older, You should check out the course Humanities as it sounds like u might like it. www.openuniversity.co.uk |
