Changes to policy and curriculum

Academic Progress Policy (Taught Courses) 2020/21

In March 2020, The Open University published its new Academic Progress Policy (Taught Courses) 2020/21 for the first time.

This document applies to students studying undergraduate modules at Open University first level or above (‘undergraduate study’). This includes all undergraduate modules studied on a standalone basis as well as undergraduate modules studied as part of a qualification. There is a separate version of this policy for Apprentices. There were no significant changes since the 2019/20 version of this document.

Please talk to your Student Support Team if you need any further information. You can find out how to contact them on Contact the OU.
