If you are a college student, Spotify has a special deal for you. The music streaming service is hoping to help college students cut costs by offering a special package which includes its Spotify Premium service at a discounted price.
If you sign up for Spotify Premium, the service will cost just 99 cents for the first three months, then $4.99 per month from there on. The offer includes access to Hulu and SHOWTIME’s streaming service.
If purchased separately, the three services would total nearly $30, making for a savings of up to $23.98/month.
Unfortunately, it is only available for college students who have not previously signed up for Spotify Premium.
In order to get the deal, students have to be enrolled in an accredited Title IX college or university. Spotify has a form where you can check and verify your eligibility for the deal.
According to Spotify, the student deal lasts for 12 months and you are able to re-verify your standing as a college student at the end of that period. If you are unable to verify you are still a student, you will then be bumped to the normal $9.99/month price and lose access to Hulu and Showtime.
You’ll continue to get access to Premium for Students, now with Hulu and SHOWTIME for up to 12 months from the date you subscribed, while it’s available. To remain a subscriber, students need to re-verify their eligibility once every 12 months, up to a maximum of 3 additional 12 month periods. If you’re unable to re-verify at the end of any 12 month period, you’ll no longer be eligible for Premium for Students. Your subscription will then switch to regular Spotify Premium at $9.99/month, and you’ll lose access to both Hulu and SHOWTIME. If you still want access to Hulu, you can subscribe to for just $12.99/month.
Enjoy your music, TV shows, and movies, everyone! Happy streaming.
