Overview
- T‑Mobile rolled out the Student Perks category on Thursday, July 30, offering discounted versions of its Essentials Saver, Experience More and Experience Beyond plans for verified college and graduate students.
- The three student tiers list single‑line prices from $30 to $80 and two‑line prices from $60 to $130, with each tier carrying different hotspot, roaming and streaming benefits.
- T‑Mobile requires students to verify status after enrollment, gives a verification notice window (reported as 45 days), and may use ID.me to confirm eligibility.
- The plans are limited to a maximum of two lines per account and are live now on T‑Mobile's site, and reporters note that trade‑in and device promotion values are likely smaller on these discounted plans.
- Students can combine Student Perks savings with T‑Mobile 5G Home Internet to lower per‑service costs and the launch follows the carrier's existing model of verification‑gated discounts for groups such as seniors and military members.
