Apple Music student plan: who qualifies and why re-verification matters
Apple Music Student can be one of the best-value music plans if you qualify, but it is not an unlimited discount forever. Apple says eligible students can use the student rate for up to 48 months, and verification has to keep working along the way.
What matters most
The details that usually decide what people do next.
The discount has a hard limit
Apple says the student rate can last for up to 48 months, which is important for people assuming it will continue automatically throughout a very long course or after graduation.
Student perks can include more than music
Apple’s current student materials say Apple TV access is included for eligible student subscribers at the time of writing, which can make the plan feel stronger than the headline price alone.
