Finance guidance for Westminster’s appointed Education Agents
Copies of our finance guidelines are sent to all key agent contacts in August each year. If you are an appointed agent and you need a copy, then please contact [email protected].
If you are assisting a student who has already applied to the University, please notify us within one month of their application being made. Alternatively, please ask the applicant to complete the Post-Application Authorisation Form so that we can identify that the applicant is linked to your agency:
Agent policy and good practice tools
Westminster has a well-established Agent Policy regarding the selection and management of our education agent network:
We work closely with the British Council and BUILA (British Universities International Liaison Association) to ensure that we and our partners follow key good practice guidance and adhere to the National Code of Ethical Practice for UK Education Agents to maintain quality partnerships.
We support our agents to access a free British Council training and engagement hub.
We have been working in partnership with education agents for over 20 years. We endeavour, at all times, to work together with our appointed agents to provide high-quality customer service, ensuring accurate and professional advice is provided to all stakeholders. If for any reason, these high standards are not met, then either party may seek to terminate the partnership.
All applications received, whether via an appointed agent or a non-appointed agent, will be subject to our standard admissions policies. The applications sent via a non-appointed agent will be treated as a direct application and will not be eligible for commission.
Data processing and applicant consent
Student data privacy statement
By supplying personal details to the University, an applicant consents to the University maintaining, recording, holding and using such personal data in accordance with the University’s student data privacy statement.
When an applicant gives consent for an authorised Education Agent to represent them, they are agreeing for the University of Westminster to communicate with their nominated agent on their behalf. Only data required for the process of admission to the University will be required or shared.
Further information on data is managed when an applicant consents to representation by an authorised Agent can be found at Agent Portal Applicant Consent.
All data processing must be conducted in accordance with the International Data Transfer Agreement which forms part of the contract.
