My Apple Music subscription keeps saying I need to verify my student eligibility?

I have already verified my student status on unidays.com. Yet, Apple Music is saying I need to still re-verify it.

Hello Keana,

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities! I understand that you are being asked to verify your student status with UNiDAYS for your Apple Music Student subscription, despite having already done so. I would be happy to help point you towards a resolution.

Periodically, UNiDAYS re-validates your student status and you may be asked to verify your eligibility again. Visit the following link to learn more:

Get an Apple Music Student subscription - Apple Support

Follow the steps in this section to verify your student status again:

On an iOS device

During the verification period, you might see a message in the Music app that asks you to verify your status. To verify your status:

  1. Tap Verify Eligibility.
  2. Tap "Go to Website."
  3. Sign in to your institution's portal.

After you sign in to your institution’s portal, you’ll be directed back to Apple Music and see a confirmation screen.

You can also verify your student status at any time through Settings on your iOS device:

  1. Go to Settings > [your name] > iTunes & App Store.
  2. Tap your Apple ID, then tap View Apple ID. You might need to authenticate your Apple ID.
  3. Tap Subscriptions. If you have more than one subscription, tap Apple Music Membership.
  4. Tap "Verify your student status." You'll be redirected to a website at which you'll confirm your student status with UNiDAYS, a student verification service.

  5. Follow the prompts to verify your eligibility. If the verification is successful, you'll automatically return to Apple Music and continue your Apple Music Student subscription.

If you're no longer a student or if you complete 48 months of a Student subscription, your subscription automatically becomes an Apple Music Individual subscription. If you're prompted to verify your student status after launching Apple Music, but you are no longer a student or have completed 48 months of a subscription, tap I'm No Longer A Student. You won't be asked to verify again.


Take care!
