Verification Help & Guidance

Hi everyone,

So I already tried 10 times to apply for students education pack but always getting rejected. Can someone explain how do I need to solve this 3 problems:
If your school provides an academic email, then please verify and use your academic email address. If your school does not provide an academic email address, then you must enable use of your device camera to capture your image.
Please use your device camera to submit academic affiliation documents.
You are unlikely to be verified until you have completed your GitHub user profile with your full name exactly as it appears in your academic affiliation document. Please do not use a variation of your name or a nickname. Once you have updated your profile information log out and log back into GitHub before re-applying.
So my school doesn’t have an academic email, but where do I need to enable device camera use? How do I upload more then 1 image in the application?

Those messages describe three separate prerequisites:

1. Profile name: set Settings → Public profile → Name to your full name exactly as it appears on the school document. Save it, then sign out and back in before reapplying.
2. Camera permission: the application does not mean a GitHub account toggle. When the application opens its capture step, allow camera access in the browser's site-permission prompt. If you previously denied it, click the lock/site-controls icon beside the address, set Camera to Allow, reload, and start a fresh application. On a phone, also allow Camera for the browser app in the operating-system settings.
3. Evidence: because your school does not issue academic email, capture an official current document showing your name, school, and a current enrollment date/term. GitHub lists a current student ID, class schedule, transcript, or enrollment-verification letter as suitable examples.

The normal capture flow may accept only one image. Do not try to bypass it by making several uploads. Prefer one document containing all required fields; if your evidence is split across pages and the form offers no additional capture, ask GitHub Education Support how to submit the supporting page. Do not combine documents in a way that makes text unreadable, and do not post them publicly.
