Github Pro benefits

[danieljwu]

Hi everyone,

Hello, I applied to receive the github education benefits for students over 3 days ago, but have not heard back. Would like to know when my benefits can be activated and when I can get copilot pro. Thanks!

Hi, did you get your Aproved status? If yes, you should get access to all privileges within 3-5 days, you will receive an email.

Hi @danieljwu,

When the benefits become available, the status label will turn purple and change to:

• Congrats! Your request for @danieljwu was approved and your benefits are now available.

The waiting time may vary depending on different factors, such as the volume of requests; it usually takes a few days, but sometimes it can take a little longer, even a couple of weeks.

And also the Student Developer Pack Application FAQs :

• How long after I submit my application will it be approved?
• How long after I’ve been approved will I receive my academic benefits?
