I don't have access to the free student tier when visiting the subscription page #19050
-
|
On VS Code I started getting notifications that my "Copilot experience is not fully configured" and that I should complete my setup. When clicking on the link, this brings me to the Profile > Settings > GitHub Copilot page where it says that I have to activate copilot. I saw that as a student I can continue to use Copilot for free as part of the Student Developer Pack. However, when I go to the subscription page for Copilot, I don't get the option to use it for free, as is described here:
I have double checked and on GitHub Education, it is clear that I have access to the Student Development Pack and that I do not need to reverify my student status. How can I activate Copilot with the Student Development Pack? Thanks |

I'm a student of Decagon Institute and could not use the free copilot student developer pack. It is requesting for payment I'll wait for someone from GitHub staff to help me... I need the access to Copilot. It has been really helpful to my co students especially for our projects. |

When I try to do this it doesn't let me do it because it says that I already verified myself in Nov 2021 and it's not needed. |

Same issue here. Have student pack for another year still, and I have been in the technical preview as well. Gave me that crap about not being configured today. I went and did the trial shit til august and got it working again, but it does not appear in my github student pack at all. They obviously turned something on today to cause this as a bunch of people are having the same issue. Honestly its bullshit they are charging for it anyways, using our code to autocomplete essentially. So once my student stuff expires I am going to have to pay for Pro and Copilot? Like WTF. Just include it for free with Pro or let beta testers have a year of it or something after it launches publicly in August considering all the help we have given to get it up and running properly. |

I didn't. The only way to solve it is buying the subscription, I guess... |

I got i fixed by re-applying for github student even though I already had github student... maybe try this if it isent to much work (you will need access to your student mail and a photo of your student ID) |

@LucasNavarroB you must apply the student discount coupon you received to your github account, then your copilot student access will be unlocked. |
