Hey:)
Is the pricing on the Ou website for Ireland in euros or pounds?

Sterling!

Just as I suspected,

Thanks:)

I think you will find they are in pounds sterling.

Moonbeam · 14-04-2004 5:23pm

hmmm yes exactly as it says:P

It isn't cheap.

Well I think you might be entitled to a tax break if it is contributing to a degree.

Yup AFAIK OU courses can count for tax relief purposes

Probably only the 20% band? Seemingly, UK students have part of their fees subsidised, and that's why us Irish have to pay so much more to do an OU course. And the English moan about how hard-up they are!

I don't know about the band issue, probably worth checking it out anyway - better to be sure than miss out on some cash

only certain courses are approved by the government for tax relief. I don't know what they are, but apparently that info can be got somewhere on the internet (I've tried, but can't find the page!)

I think this might help

The way I read it any undergraduate course which counts towards the BA/BSc degree from the OU (which I think is all of them) should allow you to claim tax relief

Thanks, BuffyBot!
