In order to use the StudentUniverse.co.uk website and purchase products, we require you to agree to our Privacy Policy and all of the Terms & Conditions, below. If you do not agree to our terms, do not access or use this website.

Membership, Identity and Fraud

You may need to qualify for certain StudentUniverse.co.uk products and benefits, based on age or other criteria. Some products and benefits are restricted to current students and academic teaching staff at accredited colleges or universities and 'youth' products and benefits are typically restricted to users aged between 16-25 years old, others are not. We state the restrictions on the website in relation to each product or benefit.

By agreeing to our Terms, you grant StudentUniverse.co.uk and/or its partners the right to check your student, academic teaching staff, or age status with your college, university or learning institution. We reserve the right to request additional documentation, if needed, to verify your age or status. By purchasing a ticket from us, you give StudentUniverse.co.uk explicit consent to contact your school or organisation to verify your current enrollment status. We will use this information to verify your status for the initial product(s) you order and will retain it so we have your status for subsequent products you may want to order.

If you do not fulfill the age and status requirements of your ticket, your booking may be cancelled. If that happens, we will not pay any booking cancellation or other fees or any accommodation, travel or other costs you incur because you are unable to travel as scheduled or otherwise benefit from your booking or are denied boarding to a flight. StudentUniverse can recover from you any charges or cancellations fees it has to pay to airlines, tour operators or other providers and you will pay our reasonable costs of processing the cancellation.

Anyone falsely claiming student or academic teaching staff status may be committing an act of fraud. You understand that you are financially responsible for all uses of this site by you, and by those using your account information. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account information and password.

You are legally entitled to know what personal information an organisation holds about you and how that information is processed. If you would like to know what information we currently hold about you, please contact us at [email protected]
