University Guardianship

We provide a UK-based guardian for university students under 18

Students who are under 18 and wish to study in a university or college in the UK usually need an appointed guardian as they are considered 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 into a program. However, a handful of universities (e.g. those in London) request guardianship information before acceptance.

By choosing UKG’s University Guardianship Service, we guarantee you will not need to pay any additional fees if you end up attending a university that is not your first choice.

Testimonials

UKG is the correct choice. In these two years, the dedicated teachers took care of me like my own parents, such as organising dinner for Chinese New Year which reduced my homesickness. My Guardianship Coordinator is a friend and teacher, she provided valuable advice and helped me release stress from exams and studies. Another Guardianship Coordinator was responsible for actively cooperating with the school for me. In short, whether in learning or life, their whole team has given me a lot of support, as long as I knew they are here it gave me peace of mind.
