France
The ‘Auld Alliance’ is alive and well at the University of Glasgow, with over 130 French students starting their studies at a world top 100 university every year. In fact, the French have been coming to study at the fourth oldest English speaking university in the world for over 400 years, with our first known student from France, Isaacus Mazerius, graduating in Arts in 1585. Alumni have gone on to work in industry, academia, media and management, amongst many others.
Interested in a degree from a world top 100 university in one of the world’s best student cities? Look no further! We do, after all, have so much in common - from a love of football / rugby, art and architecture, to an appreciation of literature, romance...and wine!

Meet Us
Students who choose to be counselled by an agency should expect the following standards of service:
- Representatives will support students throughout the application process, providing advice and assistance in the preparation/submission of documents. It is, however, the applicant who must remain ultimately responsible for their account and the management of communications.
- Representatives will have full access to student data contained within the application form and may manage a student application by discussing all aspects of the application with the University of Glasgow.
- Representatives should be honest and accurate in communicating information about the University to the student and vice versa. At no time should representatives disseminate false or misleading information to the student or to the University.
- Representatives will conduct themselves with fairness and integrity at all times and are subject to a rigorous selection and ongoing training process by the University of Glasgow.
- Representatives are paid by the University for their services and will not pass on charges to prospective students.
