+21 Insane College Student Discounts You Need To Know About
College student discounts are one of my favorite thing about college (seriously). I love the perks of knowing I don’t have to pay the full price because I’m a student! Over the past couple of years, I’ve shamelessly taken advantage of many discounts. And because I believe sharing is caring, I’ve decided to share them with you! Here are some incredible college discounts I have used over the past couple of years.
Please note this isn’t a complete list of EVERY student discount ever. This is simply all of the college student discounts I have come across and heard about. If you’re wanting to know if a brand offers student discounts (and you didn’t see them in this list) it would be beneficial to just ask! Student discounts are not always advertised. I’ve also added links to each brand so you can easily check all the terms and conditions to start using each discount!👩🏽💻

This is another college discount hub! You sign up with your college credentials and you will immediately have access to tons of college discounts. You’ll have access to discounts for brands such as ASOS, Levi’s, Apple, Hollister, and more.
Obsessed that I recently came across this amazing hub of student discounts! If you didn’t already know RetailMeNot is a deal-finding platform with coupons, promo codes, and cash back offers. Something I recently found is they have over 1,000 listings of college student discounts. Get discounts to brands such as Dell, Misguided, Milk Makeup, ELF, Budget, Microsoft, Mead (for your student supply needs), and so many more.
This website compiles the best student discounts. This is a great spot to find various college student discounts.
Entertainment
Spotify (+ Hulu + Showtime)
My absolute favorite college student discount. I love music and Spotify offers 1 month FREE and then their monthly plan at $4.99 for students after the free first month. With this, they also offer free Hulu and Showtime subscriptions. The offer lasts for up to four years as long as you have your student login credentials.
Apple Music
Apple Music also has a great deal, a monthly subscription making it $4.99, just without the extra perks that Spotify has😉. They do, however, offer Apple TV+ for free with the student subscription and if you haven’t seen the Morning Show yet, it’s a great watch. Their plan also lasts for up to four years with your student login credentials.
AMC
Participating theaters have student discounts every day. All you have to do is present your student ID. I would call beforehand if you want to make sure the one you’re planning to go to has it.
Cinemark
Participating theaters have student discounts every day. All you have to do is present your student ID. I would call beforehand if you want to make sure the one you’re planning to go to has it. Another hack for participating Cinemark theaters (since I worked there in high school) is that there are discounted prices every Tuesday and their cheapest tickets are always the first showing of the day (for any day)!
Regal
Participating theaters have student discounts every day. To see the full list of participating theaters, click here.
Marcus Theaters
Participating locations offer $6 movies a ONE (1) free 46 oz popcorn every Thursday. You just need to show your student ID.
Health and Wealth
YNAB (You Need A Budget)
If you are looking for a great way to budget faster than pen and paper (and Excel), check out YNAB. They offer a year of their budgeting platform for FREE and then a discount for the year following if you choose to continue the subscription. I loved how organized everything was and that it saved me time because it does automate things for you.
Papier
Papier offers 10% off stationary until you graduate. You can use this discount on planners, notebooks, list notepads, wellness journals, and more! This can be claimed through StudentBeans as well.
Shopping + clothing
