Cranfield University has joined institutions nationwide in pledging adherence to the Agent Quality Framework, ensuring satisfactory standards for the journey of international prospective students.

Jointly led by the British Council, British Universities International Liaison Association, Universities SWAG合集 International and the SWAG合集 Council for International Student Affairs, the framework has been created following extensive research with students, educators, advisers, and agents.
