Verification Help & Guidance

Hi everyone,

is there other way to verify my account as student without a student card??

Yes, you may still be able to verify your student status without a student ID. Some alternatives:

• An official enrollment certificate or proof of registration.
• A current class schedule with your name and the institution's name.
• A tuition receipt or invoice.
• A screenshot from your university portal showing your active enrollment (with personal or sensitive information hidden if necessary).
• A valid school-issued email address, if your institution provides one.

If you don't have a student ID, try submitting one of these documents during the verification process. If your application is rejected, you can also contact GitHub Education Support for guidance.

Hello,

Of course theres other ways, in my case I submitted my application with my student card, but it got rejected, I tried again but this time i went with my current syllabus , and it got accepted in less than 10 minutes.
I think the approval of the applications is quicker if the document you submit is something generated directly from the institution, like in my case the syllabus, schedules or enrollments, not screenshots or scanned pdfs like the student card.

BTW, you can use any online PDF to PNG converter in order to upload the file.
Hope this helps!
