The OU in the South East serves students in Kent, Surrey and Sussex. Our regional office is located in East Grinstead.

722 tutors support 14,100 students by phone, email and through tutorials at 31 study centres across the region. Students are supported throughout their time with the OU by the team of specialists who offer advice and guidance on a range of issues including careers, disability, financial difficulties, time management and study-related problems. You can find out more about our course choice events or other services offered by the region.

The Regional Centre also provides services for prospective students. If you are thinking about studying with the OU or are trying to decide which course is right for you, you can come and view course materials in the Library at the Regional Centre, Monday-Friday from 9.00 to 16.30. In addition you can make an appointment with an educational adviser to discuss your options in more detail by calling 01342 322642.

You don't have to visit the Regional Centre to have the opportunity to meet our staff and discuss what it's like to study with us. Throughout the year we arrange information events across the region. Find out where you can come and meet us at an OU event near you.
