How i got the GitHub Student Developer Pack.

They created the GitHub Student Developer Pack with some of their partners and friends: to give students free access to the best developer tools in one place so they can learn by doing.

One fine day, I was checking out the daily updates at LinkedIn. Suddenly I came across a post by one of my friends that GitHub is providing Student Developer pack to some of the students.

At first, Honestly, I was not aware of it but then I started researching it. And then I came to know that Github is providing a Student developer pack in which they will provide free subscription and access to various great platforms so that we can learn better by hands-on experience.
There were many things on the list and hence I decided to apply and did so.

After some days, I got a mail from Github and BOO-OO-OOM they gifted me the Student Developer Pack.
I was very excited to see what I got. So, here is the list:- https://education.github.com/pack.
If they are still accepting the applications, just go for it.

The most interesting thing for me is Free GitHub Pro while I am a student.
So, if you also wanna gain this pack just apply for it.

I'd like to point out that any student can redeem their Student Pack if they submit their college/university email (with a *.edu TLD). If you don't have access to your email, then you can also upload any mark sheet or certificate which mentions your period of study.

Additionally, you can renew it after a year if you are still a student! I got my pack a year and a half ago and renewed it.

I have been using GitHub for years now. I use it for everything from managing personal projects to my class projects. The best part about using GitHub is that it's completely free! In order to get the GitHub Student Developer Pack, you must first sign up with your school email address and then go to this link. Most of the students like to read coworkingmag.com/magazine/how-to-c... online. Once you have signed up, you will be able to start your application for the pack.
