HE discounts / end of course / staff

[GeX]

Hi all

Wondering if you can help clarify something for me. My OH is currently at uni in her final year. She's looking to get an Air - but I've said she should hang on till the new Air/Pro/Whatever it's going to be will be announced.

I'm worried that in waiting, it's going to mean that Apple won't recognise that she's still at uni and therefore won't qualify for the HE discount.

What may be a way to still get the discount is that she might be starting a job at another uni once she graduates - are uni staff entitled to the same level of discount as students?

if you order through the uni network it will come up as the student discount, so she won't have a problem, they never ask for ID online anyway

So she should be order it anytime up until her uni network credentials expire? Perfect. Thanks

If she's being employed by a university as a member of staff then she will qualify for the same/similar offers I believe (not sure if its dependent on the university or not?)

Not dependant on the uni as long as she has a uni email address, I did it through work with mine (not a student)

I'm guessing it's wrong to order a mac whilst visiting a mate who's at uni then!

huh?

When my OH gets her air, it's going to be my name on the payment card - is that going to be a problem?
