    Updated with links so you don't have to go Googling :)

    I tried to add my student email but cant seem to get the verification. Any idea? I've checked my spam mail already too.

    • It's probably slow by 10 minutes. Not uncommon.

    • +1

      Mine was also missing after a couple of hours, so I went to my account and hit the "reset verification email" and it came in instantly.

      • Turns out my uni thought it was spam so withdrew it from me until today where i had to verify

  • Does having a .edu email is enough to get verified?

    • Yes. I was able to get my EDU domain verified.

  • +1

    Will they take this off you once you graduate or do you keep for life?

    • +2

      Everything on there is either already free for everyone or has a time limit which starts when you register.

      Technically you can sign up every year even after you graduate if your school doesn't close down your email.

  • I feel like since they added so many more (a lot which are 6/12 month trials or free for everyone) the package is more of a walking advertisement rather than student deals. It definitely has a lot of noise covering the good ones.

    • 6/12 months trial are fine imo. I think one of the walking advertisement deal is the one for stripe lol. One of the better ones is for jetbrains where you can renew it annually and even get a post discount after graduating I think. Sadly I am using an old macbook with 4gb so stuck with sublime.

      Namecheap advertisement did work for me as I find their domain management good enough and got a domain for free. Better than namesilo and crazydomain and cheaper than some.

      • Canva is also an ad I think, that has a free version no matter what, and this doesn't appear to cover Premium (which is only a mild improvement over free)

        • +1

          We use canva at work and the premium is quite ok if you're a "power user". More templates and more fonts to keep.

          After going through the list, I find some are good for my use. The instructional videos save a bit of money and some are well made like the front end masters. Currently going through the bootstrap tutorial. Tower isn't that good of a git client. Termius is good, but there is a free version. Bootstrap Studio is a bit useful.

          • @xaykogeki: Canva Premium is good - but using the free version it's rare that I come across a feature that I would really like in the free version. Additional fonts and templates are good, but there are so many included that it doesn't really affect the usage.

  • +1

    I will develop a student!

  • Out of interest, does anyone have a decent and easy way to get a student email? I did have one from the UTAS free courses, but I think the address has been shut down..

    • Reddit

    • I don't think UTAS emails ever get shutdown

      • I left UTAS in 2013 and they shut down my email in 2018.

        • Yep, checked him this morning and mine got shut down. Also tried my Monash email from when I actually went to university and that's down too - I can only access student services as an ex-student

    • Can buy some off ebay for a few bucks I heard
