Learn More →Istituto Marangoni London is the UK school of Istituto Marangoni, a private fashion and design institution founded in Milan in 1935 by the tailor Giulio Marangoni. It is not a UK university and does not hold its own degree-awarding powers; its UK degrees are validated by a partner university. The London school opened in 2003 and is based at 30 Fashion Street in Spitalfields, East London, in a converted industrial building close to Brick Lane and the City. The wider group, now part of Galileo Global Education, also has schools in Milan, Florence, Paris, Dubai and several cities in Asia.
The London school specialises in fashion and design. Its undergraduate programmes are three-year BA (Hons) degrees in areas such as fashion design, fashion business, fashion communication and image, interior design, product design and visual design. Master's programmes cover subjects including fashion and luxury brand management, fashion buying and merchandising, styling and creative direction, interior design and jewellery design. Teaching places strong emphasis on industry projects, brand collaborations and sustainable practice, and the school's alumni include several well-known international designers.
Istituto Marangoni London recruits students from many countries as part of an international network of schools. The school sponsors international students for the Student visa and issues a Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) as part of the admissions process. Applicants who need a visa must provide an IELTS for UKVI (Academic) result.
For three-year undergraduate courses the typical English language requirement is IELTS Academic 6.0 overall, with no element below 5.5, and for postgraduate courses it is typically IELTS Academic 6.5 overall, with no element below 5.5. Students who are not yet ready for direct entry to a degree can take the Foundation in Fashion and Design, a preparatory year with a lower entry requirement of IELTS 5.0 overall and at least 4.5 in each component for visa students. The school also offers short courses and semester study options in fashion, design and art. The school publishes guidance on accommodation and health for students moving to London. Graduates of eligible UK degree programmes may be able to apply for the UK Graduate Route.
Intake information is provided as a general guide. Start dates vary between universities and courses, and not every course is offered at every intake. Please follow the UCAS deadlines for undergraduate applications and check the latest dates on the official Istituto Marangoni London website.
UK universities typically require international students who are under 18 when they enrol to have a UK-based nominated guardian in place. The guardian acts on behalf of the parents while the student is a minor, serving as the university's point of contact in an emergency, supporting the student's welfare and providing a trusted adult close by. British Guardianship provides this as a fully accredited university guardianship service.
We have guardians available and ready to be assigned. The overall timeframe depends on how quickly the required paperwork is completed and communication with Istituto Marangoni London is finalised. As every case is different, timelines can vary, but we aim to make the process as smooth and efficient as possible.
Our UK university guardianship services for Istituto Marangoni London start from £250 per term. We also offer premium and bespoke packages, and with our flexible guardianship services you only pay for the services you need. Full details are on our guardianship fees page.
No. Once your child turns 18, the nominated guardian requirement no longer applies and guardianship services are no longer needed. This is why our university guardianship is priced per term, so you only pay until your child's 18th birthday.
A UK student guardian must be a responsible adult, usually aged 25 or over, who lives permanently in the UK, speaks fluent English and is close enough to respond quickly in an emergency. The guardian must be contactable 24 hours a day, act as the university's emergency contact until the student turns 18, and hold an Enhanced DBS check where they or their household host the student. Istituto Marangoni London may also ask for the guardian's details at enrolment and set additional requirements of its own. As an AEGIS-accredited guardianship provider, British Guardianship meets these requirements on your behalf, with vetted guardians, Enhanced DBS checked host families and 24-hour emergency support.
