Grammarly Student Discount (2026)

Two ways to get it. One’s better.

Option 1: 50% off via SheerID (official, needs student verification) Option 2: 30% off via promo link (no verification needed)

Most students go with SheerID first. If verification fails, the promo link is a solid backup.


Pricing

Path Discount Annual Price Verification?
SheerID (official) 50% off ~$72/year Required
Promo link 30% off ~$100.80/year Nope
Student Beans / UNiDAYS 20-25% off ~$108-115/year Required

Standard Grammarly Pro: $144/year. These are first-cycle discounts — don’t expect them to auto-renew at the same rate.


How to Get the 50% Deal

SheerID verification. Takes about 5 minutes.

  1. Go to the SheerID verification page
  2. Enter your school name and student email
  3. Upload proof if auto-verify fails (enrollment letter works)
  4. SheerID emails you a promo link
  5. Subscribe through that link

Works only if you’re currently enrolled. New subscriptions only — existing subscribers need a new email.

Can’t stack with other offers. Doesn’t work on App Store / Google Play purchases.


How to Get the 30% Deal

Easier. No ID needed.

Use this link: grammarly.com/student-30-off

Valid through June 30, 2026. Works on monthly, quarterly, or annual plans.


Who Qualifies

For the SheerID path:

  • Enrolled at an accredited college or university
  • Can verify via school email or enrollment docs
  • New to this discount (existing discount users don’t qualify again)

For the promo link: anyone.


What You Get with Pro

Grammarly Pro vs Free — the gap matters for actual academic work:

  • Plagiarism detection — checks against billions of pages. Free version doesn’t have this.
  • Advanced suggestions — style, clarity, tone. Not just typos.
  • Full sentence rewrites — when a sentence is just… bad
  • Works in Word, Google Docs, browser — wherever you’re already writing
  • No character limits on longer docs

The free version catches basic grammar. Pro catches the stuff that makes your writing actually readable.


Worth It?

Get it if:

  • You write papers regularly
  • Your school uses Turnitin (plagiarism detection matters)
  • You’re non-native English speaker — the style suggestions help a lot

Skip if:

  • You mostly write casually (emails, texts)
  • Already using another writing tool you like
  • Not planning to write anything academic this year

$72/year via SheerID works out to $6/month. Most students spend more than that on a single textbook.


Re-verification

Annual. Grammarly will prompt you when it’s time. As long as you’re still enrolled, you stay on the discount rate.

Features

  • Plagiarism detection (not in free version)
  • Advanced grammar and style suggestions
  • Full sentence rewrite suggestions
  • Tone detection
  • Works in Word, Google Docs, and browser
  • No character limits on long documents

Requirements

  • Currently enrolled in an accredited college or university
  • Valid student email or enrollment documents for SheerID
  • New subscription (existing subscribers need a new email)
  • Not stackable with other discounts
  • Does not apply to App Store or Google Play purchases

How to Apply

  1. Pick your path

    Want max savings? Go with SheerID (50% off). Don't want to verify? Use the promo link (30% off).

  2. SheerID: verify your student status

    Visit the SheerID verification page, enter your school and student email. Upload enrollment docs if auto-verify fails.

  3. Get your promo link

    SheerID emails you a personal discount link after verification. Or just use the direct 30% promo link if skipping verification.

  4. Subscribe to Grammarly Pro

    Click through the promo link and complete your subscription. Annual plan gives the best per-month rate.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Grammarly have a student discount code?

No universal code. You need SheerID verification (50% off) or a direct promo link (30% off). Generic coupon codes don't work.

How much is Grammarly for students?

About $72/year with SheerID (50% off the standard $144/year). Or $100.80/year with the 30% promo link. Both are first-cycle discounts.

What's the difference between free Grammarly and Pro?

The big one: Pro has plagiarism detection, free version doesn't. Pro also has advanced style/clarity suggestions and full sentence rewrites. Free just catches basic grammar and spelling.

I already have a Grammarly account. Can I use the discount?

SheerID discount is for new subscriptions. If you're on free, you can upgrade. If you already paid full price, you'd need a new email account to get the discounted rate.

How long does the student discount last?

First subscription cycle only. You'll need to re-verify annually through SheerID if you want to keep the discounted rate. As long as you're still enrolled, it should go through.

Does it work outside the US?

Promo link works globally. SheerID works in most countries — students at international universities included.
