The process of placing an order in an education store is exactly the same as that in an ordinary retail store, except that after submitting the order, Apple will randomly check the qualifications of education priority.
If Apple finds out, it will send an email telling it to send relevant certificates (such as student ID card, teacher ID card, new student admission notice, etc.). ), and after sending the relevant certificates to Apple (Apple may review your qualifications, which will generally be approved within 1 working day. After that, it will be delivered.
Apple's review of academic qualifications is in the form of "spot check". Not every order needs to be reviewed for eligibility for educational benefits. So it is possible that your order can be bought at a preferential price for education without uploading any certificates. So, after you submit your order, you just need to pay attention to the email in your inbox to know whether you have checked it. If there is no spot check, Apple will directly confirm the order and deliver it to you.
Many fans may wonder, can freshmen who have not yet entered school enjoy educational concessions?
The answer is yes, you just need to send the university admission notice to Apple when submitting the materials.
Middle school students can't enjoy preferential education (but kindergarten, primary school, middle school and university teachers with teacher qualification certificates can).
The following advantages also apply to retail customers:
For cash-strapped fans, you can choose the credit card interest-free installment purchase service that Apple cooperates with China Merchants Bank (you need to have enough China Merchants Bank credit cards), and the maximum repayment score is 12, which will not generate any handling fees and interest. Of course, you can also choose to pay off in 24 installments, but the bank will charge a handling fee.
It is also worth mentioning that if you are in Hangzhou, Shanghai, Beijing, Nanchang, Nanning, Chengdu, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Nanjing and Tianjin, you can also choose the cash on delivery service. In other words, you don't need to pay a penny when placing an order, and then pay after receiving the goods or swipe your card through the POS machine.
If you go to school in Beijing, Shanghai, Chengdu, Shenzhen and other places, you can go directly to the local offline Apple Store to buy, and those who meet the requirements can also enjoy educational concessions. But before you go, you'd better call to confirm whether there is any stock in the store, so as not to make a trip in vain. You can check the phone numbers of various Apple stores here.
