Hi everyone,

Hi. I was approved for the GitHub Education benefits on 16-Sep. Can you please tell me when can I receive the benefits. Thanks.

How long after I’ve been approved will I receive my academic benefits?

Hi @pi-sen ,

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.

When the benefits become available, the status label will turn purple and change to:

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