What is the Apple Music student discount?
Apple has a nice perk for students who are currently enrolled in a degree-granting university or college. As long as you can verify your status as a college student (you’ll need access to a valid college email address), you’ll get 46% off the regular price of an Apple Music streaming subscription. Here’s what the discount looks like in 2024:
Apple Music Student Plan: $5.99 per month
Apple Music Individual Plan (non-student): $10.99 per month
Keep in mind that you can only get the discounted rate for up to 48 months. You’ll also need to reverify your student status at the end of each year. Once your 48 months are up, you’ll automatically get enrolled at the individual plan price.
Where do I sign up?
Go to the Apple website to launch the Apple Music app (or iTunes), then click the link to “Verify Eligibility.” That’ll launch the website of Apple’s third-party provider, UNiDAYS, where you’ll select your institution and enter your college email address. They’ll send you an email where you can verify your account and complete the process.
Will I get any freebies with the Apple Music student plan?
For a limited time, the Apple Music student subscription also comes with free access to Apple TV+, their paid movie and streaming service (regularly $9.99/month).
Can you get the Apple Music student discount in high school?
That’s a nope. Apple says “you must be a student studying a bachelor’s degree, postgraduate degree, or equivalent higher education course” at a university or college to sign up for an Apple Music student subscription.
Apple Music vs. Spotify: Which student discount is better?
The price of a regular Spotify subscription ($11.99/month) is higher than Apple Music’s regular price ($10.99/month), so the Spotify student discount is actually better.
Plus, the Spotify student subscription includes free Hulu with ads (regularly $9.99/month).
