University
Students who are under the age of 18 and wish to study in a university or college in the UK usually need an appointed guardian.
Although 16-17-year-old students feel like adults, especially if they are applying to universities in another country, they are still classed as minors under UK law. Due to this, most UK universities and colleges require that students whose families live overseas have an appointed guardian living in the UK to act on their behalf during term time and university holidays.
Most universities do not require the name of an appointed UK guardian until the student has been accepted onto a programme. However, a handful of universities (for example, University College London (UCL)) request guardianship information prior to acceptance. By choosing the GNet University Guardianship Service, you can rest assured that you will not need to pay any additional fees if you end up attending a university that is not your first choice.
