Prospective Agents & Representatives
Thank you for your interest in representing the University of New Brunswick as an agent, representative, consultant, or application assistant. UNB enlists a very limited number of high-quality recruitment representatives to recruit students on our behalf from around the world. These contracted representatives provide us with top student applications for:
- our undergraduate programs
- our 12-month intensive MBA program
- certain English Language courses (including ESL and pre-MBA)
UNB does not accept applications from agents for any other programs. If your primary market is for graduate students, we encourage you to ask your students to contact the School of Graduate Studies directly.
Agents interested in working with UNB must first apply to become an undergraduate agent. Only once agents have established a successful working relationship with the University will they be considered for pre-MBA and/or MBA representation.
Applying to become a UNB agent
In order to recruit undergraduate students to UNB as a signed agent, you must first complete a 3-step screening process:
Step 1
To begin, please provide the following information to Angelique Simpson:
- Detailed information about you and, if applicable, your company;
- Detailed information about your primary recruitment market(s), including cities and targets; and
- Three references from Canadian or British institutions (ideally Universities) with whom you have worked in the past.
Please refrain from sending generic advertisements, flyers, etc. These will not be considered. Voicemail messages and mass emails will also not be considered.
The International Recruitment Manager will review these documents to determine whether your services align with UNB's recruitment strategy and goals.
Step 2
If your services align with UNB's international recruitment strategy and goals, you may be interviewed or placed directly on a one-year trial period.
At this time, you will be provided with comprehensive training on UNB programs and basic admission requirements.
During the trial period, you will be expected to recruit a prescribed number of students to UNB. The prescribed number will depend on your market and UNB's goals. You will be eligible to claim standard commission fees on students recruited during the trial period.
Step 3
If you successfully recruit the prescribed number of students during your trial period, and conduct business ethically and professionally to the credit of students and conduct business ethically and professionally to the credit of students, UNB will then consider entering into a formal representation agreement with you/your company.
All successful agents/representatives must sign UNB's standard Representation Agreement.
For further information about this process, please contact Angelique Simpson.
