Terms and conditions

Before launch: have these reviewed by counsel in your operating jurisdiction and confirm the legal entity, governing law and dispute venue.

1. Who we are and what this covers

Admission.ly operates admission.ly (the catalogue and marketing site) and the connected portal at admission.ly/portal. “We” means Admission.ly; “you” means the person or organisation using the service.

2. What the service is

We publish information about institutions and study programmes, and provide a portal for submitting and tracking applications where an institution has made a route available. We are not an educational institution. We do not admit students, award qualifications, grant visas, or make admission decisions.

3. What we do not promise

• We do not guarantee admission to any programme.
• We do not guarantee a visa, residence permit or any immigration outcome.
• We do not guarantee that a qualification will be recognised in any country.
• We do not warrant that catalogue information is free of error. Institution information changes, and the institution’s own published material is the authority.

4. Fees

We do not charge students a platform fee to search, compare or submit an application. Institutions may charge their own application, tuition, enrolment or service fees. Those are contracts between you and the institution, on their terms, with their refund policy. Optional paid support services, where offered, are described with their price before purchase.

5. Your account

• Give accurate information, and keep it current.
• Keep your password secret; you are responsible for activity on your account.
• One account per person. Do not apply on someone else’s behalf from your own account.
• Upload only documents you are entitled to submit, and only what was requested.

6. Acceptable use

You must not:

• submit false, forged or altered documents;
• impersonate an institution, agency or another person;
• scrape, resell or republish the catalogue at scale;
• attempt to access records you are not entitled to;
• use the messaging system to solicit payment outside the platform.

We may suspend or close an account that breaches these terms.

7. Partner terms

Agencies and institutions are additionally bound by the written partner agreement signed after verification. Where that agreement conflicts with these terms, the partner agreement governs the partner relationship. Submitting a partner form starts a review — it does not create a listing, an appointment or a commercial agreement.

8. Commissions and disclosure

An institution may pay a partner agency a commission when a student enrols. Agencies must disclose this to students. We surface the disclosure at the point of applying.

9. Content and intellectual property

Institution names, logos and trademarks belong to their owners and are used for identification. Our own text, design and code remain ours. Content you submit remains yours; you grant us the licence needed to process and transmit it for the purpose you submitted it.

10. Liability

Nothing here limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited. Otherwise, and to the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, or for decisions made by an institution or immigration authority.

11. Ending the relationship

You may close your account at any time — see the privacy policy for what happens to your data. We may suspend or close an account for breach, or on notice if we discontinue the service.

12. Changes

We may update these terms. Material changes are posted here with a new review date and notified to account holders where they are affected.
