Github for education

[tasdikrahman]

Not sure if it's already mentioned.

You get a whole lot of stuff with the github for education pack if you have a .edu email address with yourself

Some of the notable things being

• Amazon AWS: $15 in bonus Amazon AWS credits for a total of $50-$115
• DigitalOcean: $50 in platform credit for new users
• DNSimple: Personal hosted DNS plan (normally $5/month) for two years
• Github: Micro account for free which costs around $7/month normally
• Hackhands: programming help 24/7, $25 in platform credit
• namecheap.com: A free .me domain

And many more!

Cheers!

Edit: Register with your college mail ID provided. The verification period does take some time so don't get too worried :smile:

@prodicus Thank you for your contribution. Just to add to what you have said, you don't always need a .edu address. Lots of students from our college have successfully availed Github Education pack without that.

@aviaryan Wasn't aware of that.

Let's keep all issues opened so that anyone who comes here later can see what they missed.

I have a question. In DigitalOcean or AWS, it requires a promo code. I got the GitHub education pack but didn't get the promo codes! Where I can find those?
