Do they ask for proof when buying from Apple online education store in Canada?
Buying with Apple Education Pricing in a country where I don't study — will they verify at pickup?
Apple Back To School Offer 2024
Education discount from apple @ Bestbuy!
Hi I’m a student from the Philippines but I have relatives visiting home from Canada. I figured that I could ask them to buy a laptop for me from the online education store but I’m not a student in Canada, I’m a student in the Philippines. So I was wondering if they could still avail the educational pricing online without proof since I will still be paying for it? Also apple products in the Philippines cost a lot more than US and CA so I’m trying to save up a few hundred dollars.
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!
