I'm planning on purchasing a Macbook Air from the education store. I'm a student working on a master's degree, but not in a school in the US, would I still be eligible for the education pricing?
That would depend on the country your education institution is in. The Education online store is country specific and will only ship within the country it is for and will only accept studends from educational institutions for the country it is for.
If Apple has an education store for the country you are studying in, and your education institution is part of the program then you may be able to get the discount.
You would need to go through the Philippines education store: https://www.apple.com/ph-k12/shop
Education pricing is not available in all countries. Some countries do not have direct Apple sales, and instead rely on 3rd party authorized resellers who are not required to offer the same deals.
Is your credit/debit card tied to a US address, or one in the Philippines?
Im currently in the US and can't travel easily due to covid but am a student for an institution in the Philippines. Does this then mean that I'm not able to use it? :(

If the email address is from an Education institution in the Philippines it won't validate in the U.S education store. So the payment method being from the U.S won't matter then unless the Philippines Education store allows American payment methods. Not sure if this is the case or not.
Eligibility for education pricing for foreign countries
