Guardianship (Aegis Gold Standard):
For minor students (under 18), having a guardianship service is crucial. A Gold Standard Guardianship organization ensures you are well-supported while studying in the UK. Consider these accredited options:

TGA Guardianship

StudyGuard

UK Guardians

Guardianship Price Range: £1,000–£1,500 per term.
These guardianship services provide 24/7 emergency support, regular check-ins, and additional assistance with personal and academic matters.
Which Option Is Best for You?

If you're under 18, the safest and most supported option is university-managed accommodation or homestay with an Aegis-accredited guardianship provider.

If you’re over 18, private student accommodation might offer more independence, but ensure that a suitable guardianship service is in place if necessary.

For personalized advice, I recommend reaching out to the CU London Student Support Team on +44(0)20 3873 0700 to ensure you find the best accommodation and guardianship for your needs.
This should give you a clear view of your options and help you make an informed decision about your accommodation and guardianship arrangements at CU London Dagenham! Feel free to ask if you need more info. 😊

Thanks & regards
Coventry University Student Ambassadors.
