Open University gets quite expensive outside the UK. Tuition in Switzerland is outrageous.

I suggest looking at some US schools, such as Western Governors University (fully accredited) - it's about $3k per semester (you can take any amount of credits you can fit in 6 months).

I took 2 courses and I agree, outside UK (unless you are in a 3rd country and then still course options are limitted), it is way too expensive. 

I was lucky that my employer took part of the fee. Otherwise the system is geat but demanding. I complited the last course few months back and in 7 months I had to take 8 tests plus the final exam while working full time. That was too much, but I passed 

So if you can affort it, go for it they have a lot of resources, library, books, online stuff and forum... 

good luck!

This is slightly off topic, but I thought it would be good to know:
The Open University has recently started to give free access to some of their course material: http://openlearn.open.ac.uk/
So you it's possible to "test-drive" some of there course material and get some feeling for distance learning. Also a good opportunity to fill up gaps on some subjects. You can study at your own pace there but, obviously, as there is no exam or paper you wont get a degree or certificate.

I am currently studying at the Open University, I started in January and I think it is an excellent university in terms of modules content, structure and organisation. I am managing to work full-time and study at the same time. If you want any further info I will be happy to share my experience with you if it helps.

Hi there,

I'm also currently studying for my BSc with the Open University and have completed a good part of my degree. It is indeed an excellent university in terms of courses, support and tutors. Distance learning is not easy and it does require a lot of self-discipline, but the courses with the Open University are very interesting and motivating. Their courses allow people to be able to study and work full-time. I am happy to share more of my personal experience if you wish. I can only recommend the Open University.

This seems an old thread I picked up, is there any further advices? 

Any other options in Geneva for adults?

Hi, Nehaha, not sure if you still can share your personal experience. Thanks a lot.
