Education discount

Dear Apple Support Team,


I hope this message finds you well.


My name is Sayeh F. M. and I am a PhD student at the University of Porto. I am writing to inquire about the possibility of purchasing a MacBook Pro using the educational discount and installment payment options available through Apple.


I have been exploring the options in the Apple Education Store, but I was unable to find the installment payment option during the checkout process. I would appreciate it if you could clarify whether installment payments are available for students in Portugal and guide me on how I can proceed with using this option.


To confirm my student status, I have attached the following documents:


My PhD enrollment confirmation from the University of Porto.

My grant contract for the PhD program.

I would be grateful for your assistance in applying the educational discount and enabling the installment payment option for my purchase.


Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response.


Best regards,

Sayeh F. M.

PhD Student | University of Porto

Hi Sayeh,

I completely understand your situation. I've actually reached out to Apple Support myself regarding similar concerns, and I found it really helpful to get clarification directly from them. Since I’ve contacted them, I can confirm that it’s best to speak with their support team directly to see if installment payments can be combined with the education discount in your region.

I’d recommend visiting the Apple Support page here:

Apple Support

and either using the chat or phone option available. They’ll be able to check your account details and confirm if there are any additional steps required on your end.
