I didn't get the email, I'll search for it again. Please and Thanks for your time!
Only people who have been students at PUG got the email. If you got the email, you wouldn't be able to use the code!

For anyone interested:
You should be able to use this opportunity to pursue an undergrad certificate as well(vs enrolling in a degree and potentially being forced to take classes you don't want/need). This would make it easier to focus on major specific courses. Also if you take this route, keep in mind that PUG accepts transfer credits for up to 75% of an undergrad program. Meaning if you find a certificate that's 8 classes and are able to transfer in 6 from other sources, you could potentially get the final 2 classes(and therefore the certificate) free via this referral program. That's just a thought, not a guarantee as I haven't looked at the finer details yet.

Thanks for this info MNomadic.
Could I use this to get 6 of the RA credits I still need and would Purdue transcript the courses if that's all I wanted to do?

I don't see why not. It may be a challenge to get specific courses but you should be able to do 2 courses for 5-6 quarter credits each(3-4 semester credits each).

This would be a great way to go.
PUG LL courses are 5qcr (3.33cr) and UL courses are 6qcr (4cr).
I'm thinking of taking 2 UL courses myself. I need them.

Has anyone applied yet to see if they require the specific name of who referred you?

I've talked to an advisor and they did not ask for the referrers name.
I'm considering using them to get some UL credits for my degree at TESU.
According to my advisor, students can opt to pay it at the time of enrollment or pay a tuition deposit of $895.00, the remaining balance needs to be paid prior to your start.
I'm trying to figure out if the credit will be applied in a way that doesn't cause me to pay the deposit.

Whoa! I’ll be your friend. Two classes is cool. I don’t know a lot about them. Are they competency based?

According to an advisor: The weekly assignments begin on Wednesday morning and end the following Tuesday at midnight ET. You'll have deadlines for your assignments. The assignments are weekly but with Purdue University Global's online platform, you have the flexibility of completing your assignments on the day most convenient for you.
Other schedules or deadlines within the school week may vary by program. Every Wednesday, you'll log onto our website with your username and password, which will give you access to your personal desktop. You'll see several options, including links to your classes, contact information for Student Services, and links to other valuable support services such as the extensive online university library and NetTutoring.
The courses are in 10 week sessions for undergraduate courses and select graduate courses.
