How many systems can you purchase with Student Discount within 12 months?

9 Months ago I purchased an iMac with my University student discount, but now looking into upgrading my machine. I wanted to know if I would be able to get another machine with my Educational Discount? I purchased the iMac in my second year of University, now I'm in my third and find that I need a machine more powerful. It would be good to know if anyone has any information.


Thanks

iMac (27-inch, Late 2013)

Just received a message from Apple Support (UK) 'I am happy to say that we do offer educational discount to University students, which you know from using it before, and it is limited to 1 iMac, 1 MacBook, 1 Mac mini and 2 iPads a term (which is September to September).'


So It applies per academic year 🙂

Depending on the country or region you are located in, the details will vary; to

contact an education store see the link in the bottom of the Apple Store page.


Not knowing where you are located, here are some leads to check into...


To find an Apple education store, in the global sense, see:

http://store.apple.com/us-hed/browse/open/country_selector


For the Apple (US) education store, see:

http://store.apple.com/us-hed/help/contact


For additional links to Apple US education content:


For other access, you may try a regional or country source and then ask if

they can help you; should you be unable to find an appropriate ED link.



For authorized Sales, Service, consulting, training, certification, (global)

https://locate.apple.com/country


Ideally, if you know ahead of time the highest requirement of a system

or product you may need, to buy it ahead is always the best bet; now

since computers come with a pre-installed non-user accessible RAM

or other components, this is more important. Also, combine your order

so once a year, you get what you need.


There are limits and in some instances so there is no doubt about who

is getting the discount; since excess could be diverted to other persons

who may not qualify. However if you have siblings in your household,

and live at home, they may qualify separately to get student discount.


Good luck & happy computing! 🙂
