Hi everyone!
I'm a university student from Brazil and I'm traveling to Canada soon. I was wondering if it's possible to buy a MacBook using Apple Education Pricing while I'm in Canada, even though I don't study there.
When purchasing online through the Canadian Apple Education Store, I noticed that they don’t ask for any student verification upfront (no UNiDAYS or document upload). But I’m concerned about whether they verify your student status at the moment of in-store pickup or delivery.
I also read that during the Back to School period, when Apple includes a free pair of AirPods with the purchase, they tend to be stricter with verification. So I’m not sure if they might ask for proof at pickup or cancel the order.
My questions:
Has anyone ever purchased a Mac (or other device) through the education store in a country where you don’t actually study?
Do they ask for student ID, enrollment letter, or other proof when picking it up?
Has anyone had their order cancelled or rejected for this?
Would love to hear from anyone who’s been through a similar situation recently. Thanks in advance!
Does anyone know when the US and Canadian Apple Back to School offers will begin?
I think it began on June 5 in the US and June 23 in Canada last year. When would it start, in your opinion? I'm excited to purchase the iPad and M3 MacBook Air, and I think they come with gift cards right?
Is there anything stopping me from selecting the education pricing when buying a Mac even though I am not enrolled at an institution? Do they ever check at any point in the process? Is this uncouth of me to ask? Thanks
