Hi Laura,

I've studied through OUA, basically, they're just a gateway to let you know which universities offer what external courses. You enrol through them, get a student number etc, but then your course is done directly through the uni, including any online interaction with other students & lecturers.

I found them really easy to deal with rather than going straight through the uni, which can in some cases be frustrating to deal with. I definately recommend checking them out.

Now if only I could get my butt into gear to FINISH those courses...
