   
Apple Student Discount
The Apple Student Discount program is a lucrative program and is offered by Apple for anyone who is in K-12 or
in higher education. Others may qualify for the Apple Student Discount such as teachers, administrators, as well as
staff and board member. Parents of higher education student are able to purchase computers for their children as
well.
One of the nice features of the program is PTO or PTA leaders are able to purchase computers. I have used the
Apple Student Discount and the savings are worth the time and effort of which little is required. In order to use
the Apple Student Discount you must show a valid university ID card, or in my case simply show your student ID
number.
The Apple Student Discount brought the price of my computer and other materials down almost $200.00. The Apple
Student Discount may be used on computers, and some software. The software that may be bought with the Apple
Student Discount must be used in a learning environment.
The discounts received by using the discounts are determined by the school and Apple. Each school might be
different and not all schools may qualify for the student discounts. Each state has a list of schools that qualify
for the student discount and once the school is selected you will be given a menu.
This menu will then take you to the site as listed for the school you have selected. A word of caution; should
you hit the back button you from the main site you will be taken out of that site and to the Apple main site. There
are a variety of product to choose from, ranging from computers to iPods, to refurbished Apple computers, that are
cheaper than new and carry the same warranty.
Once you have made your selection you will be able to take advantage of Apple Care that will protect your
product for an extended period of time, and again the student discount is applied.
Anyone attending school and wanting an Apple produce must check into this useful discount. You may get more
information by stopping by one of their stores or simply going online and searching Apple Student Discount. Once
you are on the site you will find a drop down box and from there you will choose your product and the discount is
shown instantly.
You may also use the discount when shopping online. When shopping online you will be given an order number as
well as an email confirming when they ship the product. You may login at any time and check your order status, make
certain changes, and even pre-sign for your package.
In review I would encourage anyone who attends school to check with either the Apple Store, which are located in
larger US cities or simply logon and begin your search. Apple also has informed customer service agents who will
place the order, answer any questions you might have and help you through every step of the purchase. Parents these
discounts offer a way to get your son or daughter a computer while saving you some money in the process.
