Current UC agents

If you’re a current UC agent, you can access these resources designed to assist you with student recruitment.

All agents must have a current, signed representative agreement with UC to promote our courses and to recruit students for us. As a UC representative, you must thoroughly understand and abide by the terms and conditions of your agreement. If you have any queries, contact the Agent Management team.
