Downgrading Family Plan

Hello there, eusoubrandley!

Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities! That is a great question about mobving from a family membership to a student one. Check out this article about how to Get an Apple Music Student Membership. The article will tell you how to manage your Apple Music account and switch to the student membership. Please be sure you read this section of the article:

If you're a part of a family membership

If you’re already part of an Apple Music Family Membership, you probably don’t need a Student Membership.

If you're in a Family Sharing group, and you change to a Student Membership, your family organizer will be billed for both your Student Membership and the Family Membership to Apple Music.

If you’re the organizer of a Family Sharing group, and you change to a Student Membership, the rest of your group will lose access to Apple Music. The next time they sign in to Apple Music, each family member will see an option to join as an individual member. If you remain the family organizer, you'll continue to be billed for your Family Sharing group's iTunes purchases, including memberships and subscriptions.

Cheers!

I saw that already online, but I want to know what happens to the other members' music content they already have through our family membership? We're both students, so individual plans would be cheaper than sharing a family membership, but as the account owner I don't want to switch mine to student and have him lose his playlists/music, nor do I want to keep paying for his membership. I assume if he changes first to an individual plan, then I can end our family plan, and both retain our respective libraries?
