Re-verification/Repeat Application

Hi everyone,

Hi everyone,

I am a BSc student in Iran and have applied for the GitHub Student Developer Pack multiple times but keep getting rejected despite having valid documentation.

I believe the issue is that my student ID card uses the Persian (Solar Hijri) calendar. The automated system seems unable to read Persian dates and text, causing repeated rejections even though all my information is valid.

My GitHub profile name, billing information, and student ID all match exactly. My university email is also verified and set as primary.

Has anyone from Iran faced this issue and found a solution? Is there a way to get a manual review for cases where the automated system cannot process non-Gregorian calendar dates?

Thank you
