Where to find the best student deals and discounts

Once you start looking, you'll realise that there are thousands of deals designed exclusively for students elsewhere on the web. It can be quite overwhelming, so we've picked out the best.

There are even more student tech discounts available to browse on the Student Beans discounts page. You can search all types of student tech deals there, to find everything youre looking for quickly and easily.

Adobe student deals

If your course involves any kind of design, video or photography elements then Adobe Creative Cloud is an excellent suite of software to have in your arsenal. Sadly this is rather expensive, which doesnt lend itself easily to a student budget. See our dedicated guide to Adobe CC.

There is, of course, the student discount, which has a fantastic 65% off right now. You can get the entire package for just £16.24 per month compared with the regular price of £49.94 per month. Get Creative Cloud for Students here.

Amazon Prime for students

Being a student isnt all about work. Sometimes you need to take a break from pouring over textbooks, a chance to relax, recharge, and binge-watch your favourite series.

One excellent way of doing this is through Amazons Student version of Prime. Theres a whopping six-month free trial, and after that, your membership is half price, so just £39. With Prime, you get access to the Amazon Video library for unlimited streaming, but youll also get free next day delivery and plenty more.

Apple Education Store

Apple has a good student discount programme available if you know where to look.

Youll find the Education Store here, and you can read more about how to buy from the Apple Education Store over on our sister site, Macworld.
