Two UK options for studying at a distance. Different seats, different prices, different campus stories.
Applicants searching for an affordable UK online degree often compare Crownshire with The Open University. We are not the OU, we do not use their marks, and we do not invent their prices. Use this page to see how our product is described, then read OU’s own site for theirs.

|---|---|---|
| Seat | York, United Kingdom (campus + online) | Large UK distance-learning university — confirm current campus notes on ou.ac.uk |
| Founded | 1953 | 1969 (public distance-learning mission) |
| Online fees | Published here: about $600–$900 total; $200–$400 a semester after offer | Not listed on this site — use the OU fee pages for the module you want |

No. OU publishes its own fees. Crownshire publishes ours: about $600–$900 total online, billed by semester after an offer, and $0 to apply. Compare those figures with whatever OU lists for the award you want.
No. We have a campus in York (YO1 7HH) and a separate paid online pathway. The Open University is widely known as a large UK distance-learning institution. Those are different products.
No. Check recognition for your profession, the teaching language, and each university’s published terms. This page is orientation, not a league table.
