Hi everyone,
Just got word from the OU that my registration for W200 is official, for classes starting 04 February 2012. Something a bit weird, though. In the e-mail, this:
Scheduled to be mailed 20 April 2012 for use 19 May 2012
Does this mean that the first two months are to be done without books? Do we need to buy them ourselves?


Hi
I'd put your question to the Student Registration and Enquiry Service for clarification. You can email them at general-enquiries@open.ac.uk and one of the trained advisors will be able to help you.
Best of luck with the study, Robyn

It means that you are being sent books at different times. W200 has 4 OU course manuals, and 2 textbooks. You will be sent Manuals 1 and 2, and your textbooks, before the course begins. At that stage you will not need Manuals 3 and 4, and they will be sent later in the year.
We have 2 different dates for mailing of mateials.
