github offers you some valuable student pack for students for free. If you have a university offered email it will be very easy to verify you as a student. If you don’t have a school issued email you can use your university issued ID card for verify you as a student.

within 4 business days you will receive your verification email with all of your pack for free. If you have an idea for a take a vps you have two options in that package.
