    Legally, I do not think you are allowed to do so. You certainly cannot accept checks from an Affiliate.
    If your friend would incorporate, and provide some type of service to the student body (ie: computer help) in addition to affiliate marketing you may be able to accept payment from his corporation.

    It is somewhat doubtful that the USCIS would approve something like that.

    My advice? Help your friend out, and have him buy you beer, food, books, etc.
