Specials for student – Back-to-School

Students can scoop up a free item during back-to-school shopping when they buy an eligible item like an iPad or Mac. In previous years, Apple offered students Beats by Dre headphones; in 2021, students can receive a free set of AirPods with charging case, which regularly cost $159.99 through Sept. 27. Thanks to Dylan, a KCL reader for this tip. Don’t forget to use your 10% student discount!

Educators

All teachers and educators at any level from preschool to graduate school are eligible for the exact same discounts and deals on Apple products as college students, as described above. Educators do not get the discount on Apple Music like college students do, however.

You’ll need to bring in proof of employment, such as a teacher ID badge or pay stub. Your school will also need to be listed in Apple’s system for the specialist to apply your discount. Also, if you’re buying Apple products for your school, you can get a tax exemption.

Profession related deals
