If you're a current student or alumni, we want to reward you for promoting the 窪蹋勛圖 to your friends, family or colleagues.

So if you refer a friend and they join us, you can earn up to 瞿400 through one of our referral awards. Here are your two referral options, and advice on how to make them.

International Alumni Referral Award (IARA)

If you're from a country outside of the EU, you can earn 瞿400 if you refer a friend, family member or colleague to the university and their application results in a registration.

To be eligible for the award, the person you are referring must select International Alumni Referral Award (IARA) in the 'Have you applied via an Agency/Partner?' section of their application and .

EU Referral Award (EURA)

If you're from a country within the European Union (EU), you can still earn a referral award of 瞿200. The person you are referring will need to be considered EU Fee Paying to qualify for this. They must also be a first-time student with us who is applying for a full-time, campus-based course lasting for at least one academic year.

To be eligible for the award, the person you are referring must select EU Referral Award (EURA) in the 'Have you applied via an Agency/Partner?' section of their application and upload a completed EURA form.

There's no limit on the amount of applicants for whom you can make a claim, but you can only claim one referral award per registration. If the person you refer has already been referred by someone else, the first person to refer them would get the award. They will also need to be a direct applicant to us, as UCAS applicants are not eligible.

Finally, you'll need to submit an invoice to agentadmin@port.ac.uk to receive your payment. For courses starting in September, you'll be paid in November; for January starters, payment will be made in March.
