Question on Apple's back to school program

[agarwal.apar]

Dear All, just wanted to check if anyone can avail the benefits? I'm interested in Beats wireless headphones which are free with iPhone 6s but I am not a student but an IT Professional

Unless I misread the thread title AND your post, you're trying to obtain a set of headphones by using Apple's back-to-school program even though you're not a student. Is that right? Anyway, check out the 3 screenshots below.

Yes, that is correct. Can I avail this offer?

No, you need to be a student with a .edu email address to take advantage of the offer. Otherwise everyone would be claiming to be a student just to get discounts.
Apple utilizes UNiDAYS, a third-party verification company, to certify eligibility for educational pricing.

Oh that's a bummer! Oh well. Congrats on the Pro! Which one did you get?

Thank you!!

I got myself the 12.9" 128GB Wifi model, an upgrade from my Air 2. I never had the plan to upgrade to a bigger iPad, but I've decided to invest in one as I plan on taking notes from my Pro with the Pencil. It is becoming my portable notebook where I keep all my lecture notes and tutorial stuff

That's VERY cool. I am in total lust with the 12.9" Pro.

Apple Pencil is great for note taking

I know right!!

There's no other styluses out there that is as accurate or as great at palm rejection as the Apple Pencil.

The Powerbeats2 wireless are half off at Best Buy this week if you have one near you Not free, but half price is better than not getting it free
