SPREAD THE WORD

Refer a Friend Scheme

We believe that our students are the best people to know exactly what it’s like to study with us, and this new scheme means you receive a reward to help you with your studies too when you recommend a friend to join us.

How to refer a friend

1. Send your friend a link to this page
2. Your friend should complete the below enquiry form and include your name and student number (we’ll need this to ensure you receive the incentive)
3. Our team will contact your friend and discuss which programmes they may be eligible for, progressing them through the application process
4. You will be eligible to both receive either £250 in Amazon vouchers or £250 off your course fees once your friend has:
   • successfully enrolled on to their programme, and
   • paid their first fee payment, and
   • completed their first term
