Hi everyone,

does any one know why my application for github education was rejected? It does not even state a reason. A screenshot is attached.

GitHub does not give a custom explanation per applicant.
the issues is likely one of these
--Proof of student status
The document not showing the current academic term or date. (most common)
school name isn’t clearly visible.
image is blurry, cropped, or hard to read.
document is in a language that’s hard to verify,
OR the school is not recognized
and github profile name should match your real school and document name
Open the “Why wasn’t my application approved?” link from the email and go through it item by item.
Make sure your GitHub profile has your real name, and turn off any VPN.
Add a school-issued email address to your GitHub account if you have one.
Reapply with a clear, current proof, such as a dated student ID, enrollment letter, or class schedule showing your name, school, and current term.
