You pay $8.99/month instead of $15.99 — same features, no catch.\n\nHere's everything you need to know to get it.\n\n## 1. How Much Does YouTube Premium Cost for Students?\n\n![YouTube Premium Plan Price](/images/blog/youtube-student-discount/youtube-premium-plan-price.webp)\n\n\nAs of 2026, the pricing breakdown in the US is:\n\n| Plan | Monthly Price | First Month |\n|------|--------------|-------------|\n| Individual | $15.99 | Free trial |\n| **Student** | **$8.99** | **Free trial** |\n| Family | $26.99 | Free trial |\n\nThat's about **$84 saved per year** compared to the regular individual plan. For most students, the few minutes it takes to verify is absolutely worth it.\n\n> 📌 Prices may vary by country. Check [youtube.com/premium/student](https://www.youtube.com/premium/student) for your local rate.\n\n---\n\n## 2. Do You Qualify?\n\nYouTube keeps the eligibility requirements simple:\n\n- **Enrolled at an accredited college or university** recognized by SheerID — not sure if your school qualifies? Check the [eligibility guide](/guides) for tips\n- **Available in many countries**, including the US, UK, Canada, Australia, and most of Europe — check the [official page](https://www.youtube.com/premium/student) to confirm availability in your country\n\nThe discount lasts **up to 4 years**, with annual reverification required. Once you graduate or hit the 4-year cap, your plan automatically reverts to the standard individual rate.\n\nYou don't need a `.edu` email — just your school information and possibly some enrollment proof.\n\n---\n\n## 3. What's Included — Full Feature Breakdown\n\n\nThe student plan includes **everything** in the regular individual plan. Nothing is stripped out.\n\n| Feature | Free | Student ($8.99) | Individual ($15.99) | Family ($26.99) |\n|---------|------|-----------------|---------------------|-----------------|\n| Ad-free YouTube | ❌ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ |\n| Ad-free YouTube Music | ❌ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ |\n| Background play | ❌ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ |\n| Offline downloads | ❌ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ |\n| Picture-in-picture | ❌ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ |\n| Number of accounts | 1 | 1 | 1 | Up to 6 - 1 primary account + 5 family members (ages 13+) |\n\nHere's what each feature actually means in practice:\n\n- **No ads** — YouTube and YouTube Music both become completely ad-free. No pre-rolls, mid-rolls, or banner interruptions.\n- **Background play** — Music or podcasts keep playing when you lock your screen or switch apps. Huge for commuting or studying.\n- **Offline downloads** — Save videos and music to your device to watch or listen without Wi-Fi.\n- **Picture-in-picture** — Keep a video playing in a floating window while you use other apps.\n\nThe only real difference from the family plan is that you can't share the subscription. But at $8.99, you're getting the same solo experience as the $15.99 plan.\n\n---\n\n## 4. How to Get YouTube Premium Student Discount (Step-by-Step)\n\nThe process takes about 5 minutes.\n\n### Step 1: Go to the Student Page\n\nVisit [youtube.com/premium/student](https://www.youtube.com/premium/student). You'll see the $8.99 plan with a \"Try it free\" button.\n\n### Step 2: Start the Free Trial\n\nClick **\"Try it free\"** (or the equivalent button in your region). You'll need to be signed into a Google account.\n\n### Step 3: Verify with SheerID\n\nYouTube uses **[SheerID](https://www.sheerid.com/)** to confirm student status. You'll fill in:\n\n- Your name and date of birth\n- Your school name (search from a drop-down list)\n- Your country of study\n\nMost students are verified **instantly**. If your school isn't auto-matched, you may be asked to upload a document — a student ID, enrollment letter, or course schedule all work.\n\n### Step 4: Complete Sign-Up\n\nOnce verified, you're redirected back to YouTube to complete payment setup. Enter your card details, confirm the $8.99/month price, and you're done.\n\n> ⚠️ **Already on a regular Premium plan?** You'll need to cancel your current subscription first, then re-subscribe through the student page. You won't lose access until your current billing period ends.\n\n---\n\n## 5. Annual Reverification — What You Need to Know\n\nEvery 12 months, YouTube will send you an email asking you to re-verify your student status. If you don't reverify within the window, your plan automatically switches to the full $15.99/month rate.\n\n**Tips to avoid getting bumped to full price:**\n\n- Set a calendar reminder when you first sign up\n- Watch for emails from SheerID or YouTube (check your spam folder)\n- Reverification takes about 2 minutes — same process as the initial sign-up\n\n---\n\n## 6. YouTube Premium Student vs. Other Plans\n\nYou might be wondering whether to get the student plan or just join a family plan with roommates or friends. Here's how they compare:\n\n**Student Plan ($8.99/month)**\n- Solo account only\n- Requires annual verification\n- Locked in after 4 years\n- Cheapest individual option by far\n\n**Family Plan ($26.99/month, up to 6 people)**\n- ~$4.50/person if you fill all 6 slots\n- No student verification needed\n- Works for non-students too\n- Everyone needs to share the same billing account\n\nIf you can coordinate a full family group, splitting a family plan can end up cheaper per person. But if you want simplicity and don't want to depend on others, the student plan is the easier call.\n\nAlso worth comparing: if you primarily use YouTube for music, [Spotify Premium Student](/blog/spotify-student-discount) at $6.99/month is another strong option — it also uses SheerID for verification and includes Hulu (with ads) in the US.\n\n---\n\n## 7. Is It Worth It?\n\n**Yes, if you:**\n\n- Watch YouTube daily or near-daily\n- Listen to YouTube Music regularly\n- Study with background audio or video\n- Find ads disruptive to your focus or workflow\n\n**Maybe not, if you:**\n\n- Only use YouTube occasionally\n- Can tolerate ads without issue\n- Are close to the 4-year limit anyway\n\nAt $8.99/month, the math is straightforward: if ads waste even 10–15 minutes of your day, you're getting real time back. Background play alone is a quality-of-life improvement that's hard to put down once you've tried it.\n\nMost students who try the plan say it's one of the few subscriptions they actually don't cancel.\n\n---\n\n## 8.
