International Referral Programme

About the award

The International Referral Programme is designed to reward graduates and current students for referring international students (including EU) to the University.

  • You can refer someone you know to any full-time or part-time course (excluding online MBA programmes), which runs for at least one full year.

     

  • For a referral to be successful, a referred student must successfully apply and enrol onto their chosen degree programme, be shown to be engaging well with their course (i.e. have a good level of attendance) and complete their first semester.

     

  • Referred students must pay overseas-fees and therefore can not be a resident or national of the UK.

     

  • For every successful referral, the University will reward £500 to the referrer. 

     

  • If their referral is successful, the referred student will be rewarded with a £500 tuition fee deduction.
