Many Indian students attempting to access student offers on the Cursor platform have reported that India is not listed in the country selection dropdown. This raises questions about Cursor’s regional support and eligibility criteria. This topic aims to investigate: - Whether this is an oversight or an intentional limitation. - If Cursor currently supports student verification for Indian institutions. - Possible workarounds or timelines for when India might be added. - How users can contact support or request inclusion. ---

Hello Cursor team, I’m a student from Morocco, and I’d like to request support for **@taalim.ma** email addresses for student verification. In Morocco, we don’t use `.edu` domains — our official student emails are issued under `@taalim.ma` by the Ministry of Education. As a result, Moroccan students are currently unable to access your free 1-year student plan. Could you please consider allowing `@taalim.ma` as a valid student domain? Thanks for your attention and for building an amazing tool for developers! Best regards, Yasser RAMY ---

You can find all the information here “[Cursor for Students | Cursor - The AI Code Editor](https://www.cursor.com/students)”. You can always try, just remember that in order to use this discount, your Cursor account email must match your valid “.edu” university email, and you must use that same email to verify your student status but currently I think Vietnam is not supported. Here is the list of countries supported for student discount. “Which universities are eligible? Due to our verification process, this promotion is only available for verified students at universities in the following countries: Australia, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Canada, Chile, Colombia, Croatia, Cyprus, Czechia, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Georgia, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Latvia, Lithuania, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, United States.” ---

Good day, I am a student from Ukraine, and given our current situation, having access to Cursor would be extremely helpful. May I kindly ask if there is a possibility that such access could be considered in the future? I would greatly appreciate a response from the development team. ---

+1, I’m a student from Ukraine, studying very well in one of the best universities of our country, but $20 is still almost half of my scholarship, so it would be very nice to have a discount. ---

Hi Cursor Team and Community, I’m a student in Italy trying to access the free Cursor Pro student plan. However, I’m facing a problem with the email verification process. My official student email does not end with “.edu” because universities in Italy—and generally in Europe—do not use “.edu” domains. Despite Italy being listed as an eligible country, the system rejects my email for verification. Is there an alternative way to verify student status for users like me? Or could a manual verification process be possible? I’d really appreciate any help or advice from the team or the community. ---

I’m a Computer Science student from India actively exploring AI-assisted development tools. I noticed that India is currently excluded from the Cursor Student Pro offer. Given the significant number of engineering and CS students in India who would benefit from access to such advanced tools, I request that you consider adding India to the eligible countries list. Enabling access would foster broader adoption, feedback, and innovation from one of the largest global student developer communities. ---

I’m at the Polytechnic University of Timișoara in Romania and my student address is @student.upt.ro. Romania is on the eligible-countries list, but the checkout page just rejects my domain and won’t let me apply the discount. ---

Hello Cursor Team and Community, I’m a university student in India, currently studying at Atmiya University. I was really excited to take advantage of the 1-year free student offer from Cursor, as I believe it would be incredibly helpful for my academic and coding work. I have a valid university email address: —@atmiyauni.edu.in, which is issued by my degree-granting institution. However, while trying to verify my student status, I encountered a blocker — when selecting “India” in the country dropdown, it shows “No options,” preventing me from completing the process. This seems like an unintentional oversight, as many Indian universities use `.edu.in` or `.ac.in` domains instead of `.edu`. It would be great if Cursor could recognize these as legitimate for verification, or at least provide an alternative path for Indian students to apply for the discount. I truly hope support for Indian institutions can be added soon — students here would really benefit from tools like Cursor. Would love to hear from the team or anyone who has faced and solved this issue. Thank you for your time and amazing work! Best regards, **Kenil** Email: —@atmiyauni.edu.in Student – Atmiya University, India ---

Cursor currently requires a .edu email for student verification, but **not all universities provide this**. For example, my university offers _G-Suite emails_ and many others don’t even offer institutional emails at all. This makes it unfair for a large number of genuine students who can’t get verified just because of their university’s email system. **There should be alternative ways to verify student status like uploading a _student ID_ or supporting _other institutional email domains_.** Please consider making student access more inclusive.
