Guardianship Policy for under 18s


To comply with the University of Leicesters policy, all international students under the age of 18 must have a UK-based guardian. An accredited* UK guardianship company, Bright World, will act as UK guardians for students, for each term that they are under the age of 18. From June 2009, parents of applicants under the age of 18 will need to cover the cost of a UK guardian. Students who will be under the age of 18 on the first day of term (see term dates) are required to submit a form, to be completed and returned by their parents.
* Accredited by AEGIS (Association for the Education and Guardianship of International Students)

Parents must complete and return this simple form prior to the students arrival in the UK. It is important that we are informed of any medical conditions, allergies etc. S  tudents under the age of 18 at the start of their course who already have a UK guardian (e.g. a family member in the UK) will not require guardianship from Bright World. S  tudents over the age of 18 at the start of their course do not require UK guardianship.
