I've had a fantastic experience with Oxford, very well presented, excellent student support, fast replies to any questions. Well worth every penny, will definitely be enrolling again in the future. I am now wishing to continue with A-level English literature and language.
Course material and online resources are out of date and irrelevant to the course studied. The web site and student area is very basic, old fashioned and difficult to navigate. The 'tutor support' is laughable. I know this 'college' courses are cheaper than many others but honestly pay a little more, shop around and go with a proper organisation. I already have 3 recent ALevels at grade A, but wanted to add to my collection and didn't really mind what resources were offered being quite an independent learner, but what you pay is outrageous for what you receive here. You may as well by a 20 year old second hand text book from Amazon which would be more use than this 'course'.

I have studied 3 a levels with Oxford. The materials flow well and build on past information to give you confidence. My tutors gave me so much support and was able to build relationships whilst completing assessments. The best part is being able to work at your own pace. Would recommend.
Have been looking for some distance education forever as my schedule is so busy and I don't have time to attend courses.
Found this site www.oxfordcollege.ac and started right away! Materials and customer services excellent.
Over these past months, I successfully completed a number of Professional Diplomas with Oxford College and have thoroughly enjoyed the experience, in fact it has been first class. The staff were and are exceptionally helpful, patient, supportive and motivating; in addition the online study materials and completion certificates arrived very promptly without delay. I have no reservation in recommending Oxford College and indeed have done to my professional colleagues and friends. The prices are very reasonable and affordable and the website is user-friendly and easy to navigate. Thank you Oxford College for a wonderfully positive and stimulating online educational experience.
The course gives you a broad knowledge of law. If you work through the modules and work the self assessment preparation, you will end up with a very good grade in most legal fields. The support and comments of the tutors when you submit your SAPs is invaluable, it helps you to achieve a higher level without even realising it. I feel really confident now to apply for a job, or to further my studies. I think this course has opened a lot of new possibilities.
As the title says, I studied Mental Health at Oxford Learning College. For the price, I can say with confidence that this course was definitely the money I put into it. The tutors were very supportive of my studies and helped me whenever I asked for input or advice. They'd give critical but helpful feedback. Thank you Oxford Learning!
I have not studied for many years so was not sure what to expect.
I thoroughly enjoyed the Marine Biology course, the online material was well structured and easy to use. The tutor comments were helpful and kept motivation up. The assessment was harder than I expected, but a good test of knowledge and understanding of the subject. Overall this has been a great reintroduction to studying and I will continue to do more.
Oxford College have provided an excellent standard of support and education to me. I live in Belgium and wanted to go to a United Kingdon University. I needed to study a syllabus that was appropriate for this; therefore I chose A Levels.
I completed the required 3 A Levels, mainly focusing on the sciences. I had super support from my tutors, nothing was too much trouble and I felt confident when sitting examination, which was in England.
I cannot think of one thing I could offer to my review, to improve the all round service I have received.

I am English but studied this course on my gap year in India. The course was really accessible and flowed through the units.
The materials build up the knowledge you collate as you move through each unit. My tutor was really helpful and supportive and being abroad did not cause any major issues for me.
All round I really got a lot out of my course

Great experience, I recommend, as would probably all my classmates that I was on the course with. The tutor was very smart, and seemed to explain things in a much easier way than most tutors I have had in the past.
I had assumed the course will be a work over which I can complete in less than 2 months. To my surprise the quality and depth of the material was much more challenging than I had expected. I have learned professional details that have significantly improved my competence and confidence in psychometric practice. I had set out to pass the exam with a Distinction, but I passed with Merit. Painful but interesting.
I have just finished doing my level 3 diploma in Personal training and Sports coaching, it was a great course, I learned a lot. With having family issues it was hard to study but studying with oxford college really helped me a lot, I passed with 43 out of 50 which is a pass with Distinction. Overall 10/10 for Oxford College now thanks to them i can continue on to higher education :) If you love sport then do this diploma.
Overall I have been pleased with my course (Child Coaching) I have enjoyed doing it and been impressed (and sometimes slightly suprised) by the very fast responsiveness of the tutors feedback.
There are a couple of inconsistencies that i would like to comment on. The course was described on the home page as consisting of 9 or 10 units when in reality is it a bit less. I have made student services aware of this who apologised and promised to rectify the home page.
Th demo examination which i understand is designed to help students become familiar with the format of the questioning isn't very good as it wasn't a very good preparation tool.
Overall though, the course has been very good and despite those minor problems, I thoroughly believe the course was well worth the time, money and effort put in to achieve my results.
Positive reviews probably written by the staff of the website themselves. The support was poor. Tutor pathetic. No good learning materials provided. It was an expensive paper that was a waste of time.
Don't ever use this company guys! I paid over £1000 they cut my course off a month before my exams! (They took all my money before they did this and didn't offer any refund at all) And I sent my course to be authenticated and they didn't do it so my coursework couldn't be marked! Save your money. Go elsewhere
I got a Diploma in Counselling. I found the course material to be very useful. I would have liked to have had some sort of mock exam though the demo wasn't very helpful to me. I found my tutor very helpful with my self reflection of my SAP's. I thoroughly enjoyed my course and the other students were amazing. If the course was free then 5 stars would have been achieved but I think 4 stars is still extremely good to get.
Tip for consumers:
I thoroughly reccomend Oxford college as the tutors I had genuinely wanted the students to succeed.
This online College (Oxford Distance Learning) tells prospective students they can receive learning materials either by electronic copy or hardcopy. You pay £40 for opting for a hardcopy. However, when you opt for the electronic copy and you open the file once, you cannot open the file again. You cannot also print the file. This is after paying fees of more than £400. It leaves you with no option, but to request for a hardcopy and cough out a further £40 pounds. These people at oxford distance learning are really thieves. When you complain about not being able to open the electronic version of their course material they just tell you to try again after spending time and units on the phone to explain your frustration. I registered for a course and opted for both the electronic course material and payment by instalment. After paying the first instalment and not being able to open the file, I complained to them but to no avail. I refused to pay the rest of the course fees till they rectified the situation with my course materials but they simply suspended my account and forwarded it to debt collectors. That is for a service that was never delivered and and the most appaling customer service I have ever experienced. Stay off Oxford Distance Learning (also Oxford College)! They are crooks!
Had to pay £25 for 'PDF' material that took weeks to arrive, and in the end wasn't actually a PDF it was a link to an eBook file you could only access from one device.
So they offer PDFs that aren't actually PDFs
Awful waste of money nothiong to show but a very expensive piece of pape rwhich you have to pay extra for, disapointed at the whole experience. Shouldnt be allowed to practice
It has always been my wish to be able to learn from a reputable college, i have a high regard for the academy keep up with the good work
Oxford Learning is a leading provider of distance education in the United Kingdom. They have a well-respected and outstanding education.
I believe the answer to the question should be solved easily for a student like me. Nice experience. Highly experience.
Ok- This is a very dopey company. It seems as tho they are asleep.
They do not update the website so the courses that are outdated or have been withdrawn are still being advertised as being available to study.
I enrolled on one of their 'withdrawn' courses which they were not aware of because after paying the fee/enrollment process, I did not receive the course login details for over a week which I thought was odd considering the course took place online so I queried them about it and the customer rep said, 'still waiting for exam board confirmation'. So i waited another week and still nothing so I sent them another email and this time response was 'we are currently looking into this and will get back asap'. And still nothing so I requested for a refund because I got fed up of the slow responses and rightly so. And then it wasn't until almost a month into my enrollment they sent me an email informing me that the course had been withdrawn and recommended me an alternative course which I'm not obliged to switch to.
This course was not available to study, it had been withdrawn and yet it was still advertised on their website which led me to enrol with them in the first place. Had this course been available to study, I would have been a month into the course instead I spent a month chasing this refund which they do not plan to refund in full (minus 20quid 'cancellation fee') but i will lodge a complaint.
What does this tell us? As course providers, it is their responsibility to keep up to date with the courses' specification such as course availability in my case, and update their website which they do not do. Hence they have wasted a over a month of my time.
Avoid at ALL costs.
