Student deals when you're not in the US

A lot of student offers are written with US colleges in mind, and some quietly assume a .edu address. We list the ones open to students in other countries, and each deal shows the regions the vendor names.

When a vendor doesn't name any countries, read the official page before you count on it. That's where the real rules live.

Region
The countries the vendor names, on every deal.
Verification
SheerID, UNiDAYS, a school email or a document upload.
Checked
Every deal shows the date we last read the official page.

What usually gets in the way

Most failed student checks outside the US come down to one of these. None of them needs a workaround that breaks the rules.

Your school isn't in the SheerID or UNiDAYS list

These services keep their own lists of schools and countries, and coverage varies a lot by country. Search for your school's official name and its local-language name. Many checks also let you upload an enrolment letter or student ID instead; look for an option like "my school isn't listed".

The offer asks for a .edu email

A plain .edu address comes from US colleges. Other countries use academic domains like .ac.uk, .ac.in or .edu.au, and some vendors accept those, but only when the offer page says so.

No student offer covers your country

An ISIC card (the International Student Identity Card) is recognised in many countries and has its own discount partners. For offers that check documents by hand, your local student ID or an enrolment letter may be accepted.

The price is shown in US dollars

Many tools set prices by country, and some charge less outside the US. The price at checkout, in your own currency, is the one that counts.

Questions we get

Can I get student discounts if I study outside the US?
Often, yes. It depends on who runs the check. Offers verified through SheerID or UNiDAYS work in the countries and schools those services cover, which for many offers goes well beyond the US. Offers that only accept a .edu email are, in practice, for US colleges. Each deal here lists the regions the vendor names.
What is ISIC, and is it worth getting?
ISIC is the International Student Identity Card, a student ID recognised in many countries. It comes with its own partner discounts, and some vendors accept it as proof that you study. Whether it pays off depends on your country, so look at the partner list for where you live first.
My school isn't in the verification list. What now?
Search again with the school's official and local-language names, then look for a manual option such as uploading an enrolment letter or student ID. If there's no manual route, ask the vendor's support. Don't use a borrowed email or a VPN to get through: it can get the account closed.

Offers change. The date on each deal is when we last read the official page, and that page has the final word.
