GitHub Student Pack Approved but Not Activated

[AbdoMostfa2]

Hi everyone,

I applied for the GitHub Student Developer Pack on February 17, and my request was approved. However, I still haven’t received access to the benefits. I really need it as soon as possible.

Is there any additional step I need to take, or can this be resolved quickly? I’d appreciate any help on this matter.

Thanks in advance!

Hi @AbdoMostfa2,

Don't worry no additional step is needed. When the benefits become available, the status label will turn purple and change to:

• Congrats! Your request for @AbdoMostfa2 was approved and your benefits are now available.

The waiting time may vary depending on different factors, such as the volume of requests; it usually takes a few days, but sometimes it can take a little longer, even a couple of weeks.

And also the Student Developer Pack Application FAQs :

• How long after I submit my application will it be approved?
• How long after I’ve been approved will I receive my academic benefits?
