Apple Certified Refurbished or Education Discount? | MacRumors Forums
March 14, 2024 - Personally I see no difference between new vs refurb from the Apple Store. Both have the same warranty and eligibility for AppleCare+. Save yourself a couple hundred bucks. As for future resale value, nobody should care, especially if you are the original purchaser. Click to expand... If you buy new a wider range of credit cards will give an extended warranty. For refurbished,Monet a few select Amex cards give extended warranty IIRC. ... Looking for a MacBook Pro: I qualify for the Education Discount.

r/macbookpro on Reddit: Student discount one OR Apple Certified Refurbished ?
November 4, 2023 -

Hi there, I am a master's student studying computer science in the United States. I would like to purchase a 14-inch MacBook Pro.

A new 14" M3 Macbook Pro with an 18 GB 512GB SSD will cost me $1959.94 (taxes included) when I use the student discount.

I also checked the Apple certified refurbished store, and the M2 Pro 16GB 512GB SSD 14" is available there for $1694.94 (taxes included).

With the refurbished, I save $265. But, as a student, I consider the product's longevity; that is, I do not have to pay more money for any flaws.

Should I get the refurbished model or the student discount model? Also, AppleCare+?

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

EDIT: As suggested by everyone ordered the refurbished one.

How can we get education discount on refurbished Apple products? - Quora
Answer: Since Apple’s refurbished prices are typically even cheaper than its prices for education, you can’t get any further discounts on them. Even if you’re buying through the “education” part of Apple’s store website, and then choose “refurbished,” you’ll be shown the same refurbished prices.

Can I use my student discount off a refur… - Apple Community
March 21, 2018 - I buy and use Apple-Refurbised devices whenever I can. They are in pristine condition, and pass all Hardware tests, and can be warranted the same as new with ONE small exception: If Dead-on-Arrival, they must be returned to the refurbished store -- they cannot be swapped for new at your local ...

Unfortunately, you cannot apply a student discount to refurbished Apple products. However, keep in mind that refurbished Apple products can be much cheaper than brand new devices.

Can you get a student discount from Apple if you are buying a refurbished product? - Quora
Answer (1 of 6): nope - they do not do that. Either the student discount OR refurbished. No combinations. OH, and the refurbished are great and just as good and maybe even better than new. They have at least 3 more techs look at a refurb and make it work.
