Student status verification
Apple Music offers a discounted subscription plan for students enrolled in a degree-granting university or college. To avail of this plan, students must verify their student status. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to do that:
Step 1: Set up a UNiDAYS Account
Apple Music collaborates with a third-party service called UNiDAYS to confirm your student status. If you don't already have a UNiDAYS account, you will need to create one. You will need to provide proof of enrolment, such as your school email address or other documentation.
Step 2: Sign up for Apple Music
Once your UNiDAYS account is set up, you can sign up for Apple Music. You can do this through the Apple Music app on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac, or by visiting Apple's website. After logging in, navigate to the subscription plans and select the "Student" option.
Step 3: Verify Student Status
In the Apple Music app, choose the “Verify Student Status” option. You will be redirected to UNiDAYS to complete the verification process. Log in to your UNiDAYS account, and it will confirm your enrolment with Apple Music. After approval, you will automatically qualify for the student discount.
Step 4: Re-verify Annually
Remember that you need to re-verify your student status annually. You will receive an email when it's time to re-verify, and you can follow the instructions provided to maintain your discount. If you are no longer a student, your subscription will automatically renew as an individual subscription.
