Ah, college. The time of your life when eating instant ramen every night is acceptable, and being broke is the norm. But just because you’re a student doesn’t mean you don’t deserve nice things. Luckily, Amazon just unveiled a slew of amazing new perks for all of their Prime Student members (and a solid discount on the membership itself, too). As of Aug. 5, students can get a six month free trial of Amazon Prime Student, and when the trial is up, pay only $6.49 per month.
Of course, you’ll get the fast, free delivery that Prime is known for. So order your required reading, dorm decor, or a new backpack via Prime, and they’ll be delivered to your door faster than you can sign up for next semester’s classes. There’s also no-fuss textbook rental and access to tons of Amazon-exclusive entertainment.
If you still need some incentive to try out Prime Student, check out all these bonus deals that you can participate in once you sign up for your membership. With everything from free food delivery for those late night study sessions to free guided meditation to help you unwind after long days Prime Student has you covered.
BEST FOR AVOIDING THE DINING HALL: Free Grubhub+ student membership
Dining hall food isn’t known for being gourmet, and sometimes you just have too much homework to even bother cooking. As long as you’re a Prime Student member, you’ll have access to a free Grubhub+ subscription, which gives you unlimited free deliveries for off-campus orders over $12. You’ll also earn 10% Grubhub+ Cash on pickup orders, which you can use on all your future food runs.
BEST FOR STAYING MINDFUL: Free three-month Calm premium membership, then annual membership for $8.99
College is stressful, and if we’ve learned anything from Simone Biles and Naomi Osaka, it’s that mental health should come before all else. Prime Student members get a free three month trial to Calm Premium, giving them guided meditations, sleep stories, and music tracks designed for focus, sleep, and relaxation. If you enjoy the free trial, you can also score an annual membership for only $8.99 — a $61 discount.
BEST FOR HELP WITH HOMEWORK: One free month of Course Hero, then $9.95 per month
Sometimes, you just need help with your homework — no shame. Course Hero lets you read textbooks, practice problems, and expert tutors, so you can strive to make the Dean’s List every semester. Normally $39.99 per month, this Prime Student deal gives you a one month free trial, then a monthly subscription for under $10 after it’s over.
MORE GREAT DEALS:
Get up to 10% off travel with Student Universe
You only have so many breaks during college, so make the most of them with a budget-friendly trip. Prime Student members will get an extra 10% off already-discounted flights and hotels from Student Universe, so spring break abroad will be way more price-accessible.
Premium Prime Video channels — $0.99 per month
When you sign up for Prime Student, you’ll also be able to subscribe to premium Prime Video channels like SHOWTIME, EPIX, ALLBLK, Sundance Now, Acorn TV, Lifetime Movie Club, History Vault, Pantaya, and Motortrend for only $0.99 per month each. Given that some of these channels normally cost up to $10.99 per month, this is a slick deal for all the movie and tv buffs out there.
Amazon Music Unlimited — $0.99 per month
Normally $7.99 per month for Prime members, Prime Student members can get an Amazon Music Unlimited subscription for less than a dollar per month. Compared to Apple Music and Spotify’s $4.99 per month student price tag, opting for Amazon Music Unlimited is kind of a no-brainer.
