Use your previous HE study to help you gain an OU qualification.

In making decisions on the award of credit for overseas study, the Open University has consulted the UK National Academic Recognition Information Centre. The University is grateful to UK NARIC for the information and advice they have provided.
Please note:
Although we recognise certain qualifications as containing credit at level 3, any award of transferred credit will be made at level 1 and/or 2 only, as the level 3 study requirements for OU awards must be met by OU study or collaborative course credit.
Credit cannot be awarded for study undertaken before January 1971. Towards some OU qualifications, there are further time restrictions - please check the How to apply section.
