Add support for .ac.kr domains (South Korea) to Student Verification Allowlist

Feature request for product/service

– Other –

Describe the request

Currently, the Cursor student verification system only accepts “.edu” domains.
However, “.ac.kr” is the official top-level domain for accredited universities in South Korea.
Many Korean student developers are unable to pass the automated verification due to this limitation.

Suggested Solution:
Please add “*.ac.kr” regex to your student email validation logic (allowlist).
This is not a personal account issue but a region-specific limitation that affects all Korean users.

Why is this feature important?
South Korea has a large developer community.
Supporting “.ac.kr” will allow legitimate students to access Cursor.

best regards,

hi @Kwangs and thank you for your interest in the Student Program.

We already have a central feature request thread for support of additional domains/regions.
Please upvote there. I will close this thread as its better to keep the votes in one place.
