Can you combine the veterans discount with the education discount and back to school promotion?

I’m going to graduate this year and I’m looking to get a MacBook Pro. My father served in the military which means I have access to the 10% veterans discount since I’m still living with him. Since I am going off to college this year I know that I will have access to the education discount as well. Furthermore, I know that in June Apple starts their back to school promotion. Could I stack these three benefits with each other when purchasing the MacBook pro this summer?

Apple said that the education and veterans discounts cannot be stacked, but the back-to-school discount is in enhancement on the education discount

I'm pretty sure it would be the veterans or the education and the back to school, I doubt the VA and education would stack because it is a student/teacher/first responder/VA/etc....all the same discount. I would still reach out to try, but probably not. Also technically, you...are not eligible for the VA, your dad purchasing for you would be eligible.

To get an education discount or a veterans discount, qualified shoppers shop in the store for education OR the store for veterans. Those discounts are NOT stackable.


As for back-to-school, that special program is briefly offered in August and September, regardless of when YOU might be going to school, and at this writing is no longer available.

Can you explain what clarification you got from Apple about the discount program?


I want to use the veterans discount on a new iPad Air, and at the same time trade-in my old iPad Air.


When I login to Apple and verify my veterans discount, the pricing of the iPad is then discounted 10% (as expected), but both the trade-in option and the option to buy the Pencil Pro and/or keyboard are greyed out.


I can understand that they might not discount accessories 10%, but am not sure why I would be ineligible for the trade-in if use the veteran discount?
