Freshers is an exciting time as we say hello to new students and welcome back returning OU students.
We realise that starting your studies can be both daunting and exciting at the same time, and Freshers is a great chance to learn more about studying with the OU, find out how your Students Association can support you through your academic journey and, of course, meet other OU students!
You can learn more about Freshers at the Association by reading our "All About... Freshers" article on The Hoot.
Our next Freshers will be from Monday 10 October - Sunday 23 October. Please note that the original dates of 26 September – 9 October have been postponed - please see our statement on Her Majesty The Queen for more details.
We're looking forward to welcoming you with a fortnight of online events, and prize draws and competitions. To be the first to know about plans for the next Freshers Fortnight, sign up to our newsletter.
