New: Top 25 UK Guarantee

Brentwood School and Amerigo launch the Top 25 UK Guarantee

Brentwood School, one of England's oldest independent schools, and Amerigo Education today announced the launch of the Top 25 UK Guarantee at Brentwood. Under the programme, Amerigo guarantees every UK-bound Amerigo student a conditional offer from one of the UK's top 25 universities.

‍

‍

The guarantee brings to the UK the same promise Amerigo has made to families on its US pathway, where students are guaranteed a place at a Top 100 university. It is built for international families who want certainty about where a British education leads, not just how it begins.

Brentwood's own results show why the promise is realistic. In 2026, 63% of grades across all of Brentwood's Sixth Form pathways were A*–A and 85% were A*–B. Its IB Diploma students averaged 37.5 points over the last three years. 76% of Brentwood leavers go on to Russell Group universities, and the school has a 23% offer rate from the G5.

Amerigo students at Brentwood School follow the school's full academic journey, from GCSEs to A Levels or the IB Diploma. Each student has a named Dedicated Student Advisor and the support of an on-campus International Department, who guide them from first term through to their university application. ‍

‍Applications for 16+ entry in September 2027 are open, with a registration and scholarship deadline of 5 November 2026. The guarantee applies to students starting at Brentwood in September 2027.

**Michael Bond, Headmaster, Brentwood School:** "For nearly 500 years, Brentwood School has prepared young people to go on to the best universities. Our partnership with Amerigo opens that path to more international students, and the Top 25 UK Guarantee gives their families real certainty about where it leads. We are proud that our students' results make that promise one we can stand behind together."

***John Cedergårdh, CEO, Amerigo Education (to the far right):*** "Families who send a child abroad want two things: a school they trust, and confidence in the outcome. Brentwood School gives us the first. The Top 25 UK Guarantee is how we commit to the second. It is the same promise we make in the US, now built for the UK, and backed by a dedicated team around every student."

How we make it happen

Brentwood provides the teaching, results and university advising team. Amerigo 360 adds dedicated academic counselling from a student's first day: course choices, predicted grades, admissions tests, personal statement and every step through UCAS. Families see how their student is doing all the way. The bottom line: an excellent school, Amerigo 360 behind every application, and a guarantee that both stand behind.

Conditions

The guarantee is for students starting at Brentwood in September 2027 and attending at least two full years. It covers an offer of admission through UCAS; enrolment depends on meeting the offer's conditions. If no qualifying offer is received, Amerigo and Brentwood refund the lesser of programme fees paid or £40,000. Minimum grades (A Level AAB / IB 34 / BTEC DDD), English language, GCSE and application requirements apply. Medicine, Dentistry and Veterinary Medicine are excluded.

Qualifying universities

The guarantee terms name 28 universities plus any university in the CUG Top 20 in the student's year of application. That ranking changes yearly, so it can't be listed in advance.
