Flexible study options

Our distance learning method offers you flexibility so that you can schedule your studies around your own needs. Students study and take their exams locally (across Africa, the exams are organised by either local Ministries of Education or through the British Council). However, if your work or family causes you to move you can take your studies with you as we have almost 600 examination centres all over the world. No matter where you take your exams, all of your papers are marked by academics in London, so you can be sure of the high quality of the University of London degree.

Some of our students in the Africa are supported by full-time and part-time (evening and weekend) classes at local teaching institutions in their country. We have created a system of recognition for institutions which operate within our quality assurance framework to help you in your choice of institution. To find an institution in your country, please see our Directory of Institutions.
