The OU MBA breaks the link between exclusivity and Triple Accredited excellence – offering the best value to students by a significant margin. The total cost of the OU MBA in 2022/23 is less than £20,000 in the UK, while fees for other UK triple accredited Business Schools start at £20k and move up from there – with some reaching about £60k.
Unlike many schools, the OU fee includes the cost of books and study materials, accommodation and food at residential schools and tutorials, access to bespoke e-learning environment and project supervision as well as examination fees.
The fee does not include any travel costs incurred to and from the residential schools or tutorials.

UK | £17,505 - £19,200 |
Republic of Ireland | £20,290 - £21,980 |
