What are the options available to me for studying abroad since New Zealand and Australia do not accept open university bachelors in UK/Canada for a Master's/Bachelor's?
You have options for studying abroad even if New Zealand and Australia do not accept open university bachelor's degrees.
- United States: Many universities accept open university degrees, especially if it's a four-year program and from a recognized institution.
- United Kingdom: Most UK universities consider three-year bachelor's degrees, including those from open universities, for master's admissions.
- Canada: Some Canadian universities assess open university degrees on a case-by-case basis and may accept them if they meet equivalency standards.
- Europe: Certain European universities, especially in the UK, accept open university degrees for postgraduate study.
Some universities may also consider significant work experience or additional qualifications in place of a traditional undergraduate degree.
If you want tailored options or help identifying suitable universities, please connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
