Hey @condor ,
I finished the verification process and got an email from SheerID Verification saying “Congratulations: your student status is confirmed” with a link labelled “Apply Discount” that directs me to “cursor . com/student-verified” (space added to show url). This immediately redirects to “cursor . com/dashboard?tab=settings”, just the regular Cursor dashboard, and I am prompted to reverify my student status again, only to end up back here again.
Hi @condor
I hope you are doing great! I’ve been also having issues re-verifying.
I’m at ETH Zurich (originally verified as a student on May 8, 2025) but I have encountered issues re-verifiying starting from Sep 18, 2025.
Any help would be much appreciated, thanks in advance!
@condor I’ve been verified since Wed 5/7/25 and received the “We have confirmed your student status return to cursor to finish applying your discount”. When I click apply discount I get taken to cursor dashboard and nothing happens/ no discount is applied to checkout when I try to checkout pro. I have been given the run around from support and even got direct email from Michael T asking what my issue was and didn’t respond to my response. I contacted Sheer to which they provided me with the info pertaining to below.
Verified email address:
Request ID:
Date Verified: May 7, 2025
They told me that this is an issue on your end.
I successfully verified my student account previously, but I did not miss the re-verification email sent in September. I tried to reverify but all the time it showed that there was an issue with sheer id verification, and this issue persisted until my reverification deadline has passed, I even sent a mail regarding this, but customer care did not even reply or check my case. I got a general reply.
Would really appreciate any help and thank you for your time.
Hi @condor,
I have also been encountering the “Verification Limit Exceeded“ message. Could you please DM me?
Thank you!
Hi @condor
I hope you are doing great! I’ve been also facing this issues of re-verifying.
Could you help me to solve this issue?
Thanks in advance!
I’m currently on the Cursor Student Plan and my access expires on Dec 6.
The Student Plan being discontinued specifically for Turkey creates an unfair situation: we lost access due to a country-level policy change.
Please consider extending the student plan access for current/verified student users in Turkey, at least as a grandfathered exception, so we can continue our ongoing projects without disruption.
Thank you.
My re-verification link expired (ended up only seeing the email in October, and have just been waiting to see if another re-verification process would start) What can I do?
Added my verification for Stanford to get Pro. Account does not update and is still set on Free.

No - Cursor works, but with this issue
Hi @condor,
I missed the re-verification window in September, I wanted to see if It was possible to get a new link and reverify now. Any helps is greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
Hi @condor
I hope you’re doing well. There has been no update on my end since september when the reverification link did not work for me (uploaded all the materials to SheerID but it did not verify me). Please let me know if there is a fix.
I missed my reverification email and have come back to cursor but now unable to reverify (link 404’s) to continue my year of student cursor. Is there a way to have the reverification link resent? Thanks
Hi @condor I also missed the link, can it be resent to me?
Hi, @condor I’m facing the Re-verification Issue. Can you help me ?
Thanks.
