Working With Agents

At Edinburgh College, we collaborate with a global network of trusted education agents and partners. Our agents play a crucial role in helping international students discover the opportunities available at our college, guiding them through the application process, and providing support as they prepare to study in Scotland. 

For students who wish to apply using an agent, we recommend 'Study UK: A Student and Parent Guide to Choosing an Education Agent'. 

Edinburgh College pays the agents we work with a commission for each international student they provide with contractual support to apply for and be successfully admitted to eligible courses.

We value the close relationships we build with our agents. By working together, we ensure that students receive accurate, up-to-date information about our courses, entry requirements, and student life in Edinburgh. We provide training, resources, and regular updates to enable our agents to advise prospective students confidently.

  • Dedicated Support – from our international team, who are available to answer queries.
  • Clear Processes – transparent policies for applications, offers, and commission.
  • Collaborative Student Recruitment – opportunities to work with us on recruitment activities and promotional events.
