Common Questions
Do I need to pay anything upfront?
No, the first 12 months are completely free. You'll need to add a payment method but won't be charged until month 13 if you don't cancel.
What happens after 12 months?
Your subscription will automatically renew at the regular price of $20/month unless you cancel before the renewal date.
Can I use my personal email?
No, you must use your institutional email (like .edu) for both your Cursor account and SheerID verification. The emails must match.
What if my country isn't supported?
Unfortunately, the student offer is only available in countries where SheerID operates. If your country isn't supported, you cannot access this discount.
Is this the full Pro version?
Yes, you get the complete Cursor Pro experience with no limitations - the same features as paying customers.
Eligibility
Who can get this discount?
Currently enrolled university, college, high school, or bootcamp students aged 13+ with a valid institutional email address (.edu, .ac.uk, or equivalent)
How long does it last?
Free access lasts 12 consecutive months from verification date. After 12 months, subscription auto-renews at regular price ($20/month) unless canceled. Re-verification may be required annually for continued student pricing.
