    Worth a try.

    I can see the sudden influx of screen shots causing some concern though :-)

    you need to click my open learn profile once logged in and then click in progress and then do a screenshot of it.

    and I saved the screen shot as a jpeg file in photoshop. but you can also save it in Microsoft paint etc.

    Signed up legitimately as I am studying for a degree with the OU - I already have UniDays and this one has some nice discounts too so thanks for making me aware

    This would be great Do you just need a screenshot of your profile? Where it shows my name, saying OpenLearn Profile underneath, and on the right it shows the name of the courses in progress? I'm guessing we can pick any course? I quite like the look of some of the courses.

    Hot if it works.

    Did it take the 3 days their automated message suggests?

    Attached screenshot to the application but the send button is still greyed out.

    I received the confirmation email at 10:23 am and I done the screen shot about 8 to 10pm.
  17. Mashhhh's avatar

    I clicked the square thing on the website for screenshot uploading and then it said they received it.

    or you can try emailing them the screenshot and giving your details.

    I have latest firefox and latest internet explorer.

    Mine was rejected saying I need one of the following:

    Institution student card
    Acceptance letter
    Academic transcript

    Also:

    "Documentation will only be accepted as proof of your student status if it contains your full name, your institution’s name and a date that indicates your are currently enrolled as a student at the present time."

    Maybe others will have more luck.

    I do have an NUS card but through an institution that doesn't give an ac.uk email address so haven't been able to sign up to student beans, which would be useful

    Good luck to others.

    Neither did I. I picked Open University as I know they don't accept NUS (I had looked in the past). I clicked manual. But it did get rejected. You must have been lucky (or me unlucky!). Enjoy your membership

    Thanks for the confirmation. I hadn't noticed this post. Guessing ACCA isn't covered under Student Beans either (unless studying towards the Oxford Brookes BSc perhaps)?

    Well I've given it a try!

    Any decent discounts on here that you wouldnt get with the NUS card?

    I suspect there will be a string of those today.
