If you are eligible for the {% data variables.product.prodname_codespaces %} Education benefit, when you enable {% data variables.product.prodname_codespaces %} in {% data variables.product.prodname_classroom %} for your organization, GitHub automatically adds a Codespace policy to restrict machine types for all codespaces in the organization to 2 core machines. This helps you make the most of the free {% data variables.product.prodname_codespaces %} usage. However, you can change or remove these policies in your organization settings. For more information, see "[Restricting access to machine types](/codespaces/managing-codespaces-for-your-organization/restricting-access-to-machine-types)."
